I like dandelions, violets, wild strawberry and Indian paint brush. Sometimes I mow around them so I can look at them longer. I only mow when I can see the grass sway as I fly over and the wind rows that result give the yard a terraced look. Mowing only every 2-4 weeks allows more time for...

I have a question. Why don't we see Gas Wars any more? When I was much younger one station would drop their price then every one would fight to be the lowest. Gas would go from 20 cents/gal down to 12-10 cents/gallon in a few days and stay there for a week before the prices went back up to 20...

check other peoples keys. My mechanic misplaced mine. We looked through his pile of other "misplaced" keys and found some that worked. I think it was a Cessna door key that worked for my Piper mag switch.

Isn't that ketchup just starting to leak out of the bun at the 47 second mark?

Speak for yourself Batman. LetsGoFlying is my Aviation Hero. :cornut: Jeez, How did that test know?!! :dunno:

Check this site. page 14 of 16 has the landing gear conversion kits. My mechanic used to do the conversions by turning the gear around like Tom suggested but he recommends the Univair conversion. http://univairparts.com/pdfs/pa20_22.pdf Barb

It gets bigger when you click on it. Nice plane :cheerswine:

I fly a Piper Tripacer for fun. I fell into kind of sideways the day after I got my license. It has taken me to more places (48 states/5 provinces and counting) and given me more stories to tell that any person deserves. :thumbsup: Barb

I'm still using my 17 yr old JVC 36" as my main TV. The picture is as good as the new Samsung LCD in the bedroom. And my 25 yr old JVC still has a pretty good picture too. Barb

The day I got here it was blowing something like 25G45 KTs. I can takeoff in a pinch at 41mph. It was an exciting landing! The ground was blowing up into the sky all around the airport.

Ah, I will neither confirm or deny that accusation. And it was getting to be a two day trip to find an airport I haven't landed at back home. Now I have an all new set. :cornut:

Torrington. I've been watching you guys lunch talk and figure I'm going to make it to one of them sometime.

I would guess late spring to early fall. Both places have well maintained runways. I have been there in June and July. Smiley Creek had daytime temps up to 93*F and early AM temps of 28*F. Elevation is about 7000 ft. There is a pretty good restaruant across the street from the airport and last...

I'd come tomorrow if I could. I just started a new job in Wyoming, so I have to work a while to get some time off time. My Short Wing convention is in Spearfish SD this year (a whole 2 hours away) maybe I could make Missouri be on the way! :fcross:

Don't promote Smiley Creek too much. If it gets busy, I won't be able to sleep in the bathroom when it gets cold!! (The Shower stall is pretty comfortable) :thumbsup: Barb

Here's my favorite (from Seldovia, AK)

The only complaint I have with mine are-- They are knuckle busters when it comes time to wax the plane!

Gary, You are from Marquette aren't you? Draw a line from Marquette to Iron River and the from Iron Mountain to Houghton. Where they cross is about where 6Y9 is (Sidnaw). Not much out there in the way of technology. Just a really nice airstrip, and some nice locals. Which makes for a real good...

It is good to have goals. :thumbsup:
