    New Information On MH 370

    Did y'all see John Stewart's comments on this earlier this week? Still getting over it along with Scary Mary's comments that if there was a worm hole, it would quickly suck in the entire universe (g). Best, Dave

    We gonna talk about BitCoin?

    Here's how Bitcoin is like the Early 90s internet (according to this fella). Interesting discussion on Bloomberg. http://www.bloomberg.com/video/here-s-how-bitcoin-is-like-early-90-s-internet-dU0H7ADwTl6arrq122kHPg.html Best, Dave

    Malaysian Airliner missing?

    New sign for the street upon which the Malaysian spokesman lives reporting on flight 370? Or the former NY rep that resigned after sending pornographic pics? Best, Dave

    Radio License for Bahamas Trip for dummies?

    As Ron said: never been asked there or in Mexico. Went last summer and made several inter-island hops. Now, their fees are another matter entirely (g). Tried to collect them several times from me (I had paid them once). FBO even tried billing me and I declined the charge. Best, Dave

    Ramp parking etiquette

    I have known folks that have repositioned a plane left like that. One time, it was put around the corner of a building where the pilot wouldn't immediately see it when they returned. Best, Dave

    Which Denver area FBO recommended?

    Many of the class B and several class C airports I fly in expect turbine aircraft to monitor tower until contacted. Charlotte, Orlando are the latest I've been in where that was the norm. APA seems to be a real mix of GA and corporate. We didn't hear that on the ATIS when we got it. Best...

    Which Denver area FBO recommended?

    Shouldn't make excuses, but my co-pilot got ATIS (g). Guess I should have listened in. Ground was telling several folks to monitor tower and they would contact you. They didn't give those instructions to us. It's not unusual at larger facilities to monitor tower in a turbine and they call...

    Very nice to see y'all and visit. Tower was a bit gruff with me when I left; I may call. Ground had me taxi to the end of 17L to depart--didn't tell me to monitor tower only--so I called and got dumped on. Was told to make an immediate 180 because he needed to use the runway. Seems clearance...

    Ramp parking etiquette

    I pulled into Destin late one evening, raining pretty hard and was being guided by a line guy between parked aircraft. He motioned me forward even though a single engine turbine was parked with it's nose very much in front of other aircraft. As I approached and he waived me forward, I just...

    Later in the day, we took a towed sled to Vasquez Cirque then traversed for what seemed like forever to where there was fresh powder and down through trees. Absolutely spectacular. Here's a pic when I was on the sled going over.

    Yesterday, I skied with an instructor working on technique. In the afternoon, we skied to Belle Fourche. We traversed from the normal trail and went where we were the only ones skiing. Here's a pic of our tracks. You'll have to blow it up in the middle. The entry was between two large rocks.

    I appreciate the heads up on the self serv. As has been said, we take Jet A and really don't self refuel. While I could do it, this plane can take almost 400 gallons of fuel. FBOs many times fuel two tanks at a time. One has to climb up on the wing to do the nacelle and Jet A is really...
