    Poll for Gastons 2014 dates

    While I'm certainly open to either, I have several things in September and it may be difficult to add another. I have something the week after in Minnesota and I just can't be gone EVERY weekend. Might turn it into a day trip. Best, Dave

    Which Denver area FBO recommended?

    Looks like we're going to use Denver Jet. After making several calls and doing some homework, they seem to best meet out hangar, fuel, rental car and parking needs. Tac Air just wasn't as responsive and couldn't offer much as far as a hangar. Fuel is a bit higher here, but the combination of...

    Ahhh yea, reminds me of my Army Ranger map instructor: Men's we gotta get you orientated on the map! English was a bit lacking, but point him at enemy bunkers and they would disappear! Best, Dave

    We gonna talk about BitCoin?

    HSBC was slammed very hard by regulators for money laundering and other charges. Don't ask me how banks are supposed to screen for that, but I'm sure there will be a load of requirements to avoid it again. Same with credit cards, after Target and others, I'm getting fraud alerts much more...

    I hope it works out. This is how something like this starts to go bad. Some glitch they can't explain, but you can't redeem right now. Like I said, hope they work through it. Best, Dave

    Bonanza landing gear problems at KADS today

    In the small world category, I'm skiing in France and a friend that came has a hangar at Addison. Anyway, I know the pilot well, just didn't realize who it was. Scott had pre flighted the plane in a hangar as it was very cold and windy. Afterward they had the FBO pull it out with a tug, then...

    Bonanza landing gear problems at KADS today

    Just guessing here, but it was Sunday. The mechanic I use came in to assist. They may have allowed time for crew to lift the plane too reduce damage rather than do the push or lift off by folks that do farther damage. They've allowed that here before. Best, Dave

    Bonanza landing gear problems at KADS today

    Maybe. An instructor I used in the baron was there Richard Klein. Chatted with him a bit. We used to avoid landing there. With the new FBO folks, we'll probably stop by more. Best, Dave
