    This joker is lucky to be alive!

    I saw "saftey" at least twice. He was so rattled from the flight that he forgot how to spell.

    New passport processing time:

    I just renewed my passport through the State Department, not a third-party service. Normal service took about 2 weeks, and they did return my old passport in a separate envelope. Pretty impressive, really.

    Oops thought that thar road was the runway...RV-7

    It looks like a grass strip flanked by two side roads. Lots of obstacles (trees, mailboxes, etc.) very close to the roads.

    N/A How many children are enough?

    Like you, OP, I never wanted kids of my own. At all. End of story. Back in 2000, I met and fell in love with a recent divorcee who had a 6-year-old son. Before we got married, I told her I would be happy to help raise and support her son, on the condition we not have any more kids. She never...

    What kind of plane is this?

    I recently received a couple photos of some of my ancestors standing in front of this airplane. The photos are dated April 1936. I tried to find a plane like this in online images but couldn't. It resembles a Stinson Gullwing but isn't. Can anyone identify it?

    Vertical videos suck.

    Cabo

    +1 on MMSL. I've flown in there about a dozen times. Their modest handling fees are well worth it. Here's a link to their website: http://www.acsl.com.mx/site/es
