But other than that, how was the trip?

…in bed.

For $5 million I wouldn’t limit myself to one plane, I’d have a small fleet: Air Cam -10 powered Turbine Legend Radial Rocket RG T-28C Commander 1000

I’ve thought about buying a handful of these and painting them up in US Navy paint scheme. It would be cool to make an airshow act recreating Operation Sleepy Weasel along the lines of the Tora Tora Tora act...

Here is a drone video before it started burning. Looks like they were able to pull at least one person out.

I like it. I’m going to be upset if I end up playing the Winklevoss twins to @CJones Zuckerberg.

Made me think of the F-16s that intercepted Payne Stewart’s Lear at altitude after what I think was a rapid decompression. Had to have been a lonely feeling watching those crashes.

If I remember right it was done via Zoom so there was probably 2.5 cumulative days spent talking over each other and “No, you go ahead and go, oh wait, I’ll go” and “Sorry, could you say again the feed cut out”.

Originally I was just going to give a smart a$s suggestions of a POA plug-in that is a Jump to Conclusion app a-la Office Space. You could just hit a randomizer for your posts which would input classics like tail-wheels are better, low wings suck or Trent Palmer is a straight billed hat wearing...

It’s nuanced, like a Borat “not” joke.

I thought he made it at 1:04.

Too much math and too many charts for a dumb pilot like me. I’m just going to check the seat of my pants, thumb on the windscreen TLAR, declare Leroy Jenkins and do some of that pilot ****.

It’s a bummer if they don’t let you apply that for credit towards your CEUs. I used to get credit for the annual 3 day simulator refresher if I taught it.

Is that an option?

I never liked straight Red Bull, but back in the day drop a shot of Jäegermeister into a glass of Red Bull and shoot the whole thing and now you’re talking. A lot of good memories were made/lost with Jager bombs.

I wonder if Bob Hoover had similar sentiments aimed at him when he had to fight to get his medical back.
