    POA Brown Arch brick?

    The only thing I remember about that arch is where you walked in to the flight line, you bought a little tag with a string on it that you passed through the fence to your buddy to get in, was that about 50 years ago we did that?

    First Oshkosh '22 Incident?

    I think that there are more incidents/ accidents that we know at OSH each year. I do remember some really bad accidents over the years. Those low tight base to final turns scare me just watching them, I did watch a lance air stall and spin in low on a tight turn one year long ago,no one...

    Fire after gear collapse at MIA

    I have already decided that if I were ever in a burning airliner like this crash and idiots try to get their luggage out of the bin, take selfies or video inside the plane rather than just get out, that I will knock them on their asses and get the F out, they can burn for being stupid and not...

    Hospital admission 55 years ago when I was 5 years old

    I forgot to put down that I had my tonsils came out at age 6, next exam I asked the AME and told him, he looked at me and laughed, leave it off there will be no records now for that. Only thing I remember for that hospital visit was that the nurse was really hot in her white uniform

    Aircraft crashes into four structures at Airshow.

    Since you brought up Oshkosh and porta potties, I remember the hot days at Oshkosh when porta potties had locking latches on the outside, you could walk by and move the latch and the person inside could not get out, saw one kid walking down a row of PP and do just that a lot of screaming from...

    Proud owner of this bird. Now what

    Long wide grass runway to start, stop the high speed taxi test, find a good tailwheel instructor and get some more hours. Have a good tailwheel/ CFI fly the plane to tell you what to expect. 10 in a taildragger is not much, be patient this is too nice and cool of an airplane to wreck, have fun...

    Areas with Active GA Community

    But if you are an older guy go where you want, Florida has become pricey, only bugs I knew were no-see-ums, unless you live in a swamp., lots of places to fly to fly to, lot of residential air parks, so heat and no cold, and no state income taxes, home insurance tough, I like the Northern part...

    More like he is a You Tuber and the feds see his other landings, etc, and do not like them but really can not do anything, this was just the excuse they were looking for to nail him, "we will get you one way or another" ?

    that old plane smell

    My 1954 C 170B had that old airplane smell, I cleaned the carpet, seats, headliner etc, and then cleaned under the floor to get as much of the gunk out of the bottom, that took care of a lot of the old smell, then opened the doors and let it air out. if I close it up I still can smell some of...
