IIRC, GE is working on improving and expanding the Walter product line. Maybe it'll help drive down PT46 pricing.....Well, it's nice to dream. I think it's kinda funny that Cirrus is more or less directly confronting Alan K and Kestrel. What the heck went on behind the scenes at Cirrus?

A guy parks his Epic in my (common) hangar. Sweet looking plane. Big. Serious trailing link landing gear. Interior is from the "Spartan Homebuilt" school of design, but Cirrus and BMW Design could fix that in a minute. Good move for Cirrus, I'd say. IMHO, single-engine turboprops are going to...

As far as I know, there are no awards issued for flying into icing. I have a FIKI turboprop, and my spidey-senses still start tingling any time I hear a report of ice. I've never seen more than what I would consider light icing. Hit it once in a T182T and really noticed performance...

Howzabout a fine Corinthian Turkey?

Yeah. My daughter came to that stunning revelation on course 7 of 10 at a churrascaria. "Oh, and what is this course?" "Lamb, senorita." "Daddy - what does he mean by lamb?" "Well, you know, sheep, lammies....." "THEY KILL LAMBS FOR MEAT??????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek:""...

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: Indeed!

In that episode where Ariel was trying to land, oh, the suspense, she's having problems, it's tricky, they all might DIE!!!!, I thought the suspense was that Dad said "OK, now drop the flaps" and, as we all saw, she instead raised the flaps. I kept waiting for her to stall on short final and...

Not to mention the crappy workmanship on the right side of the panel, the various wires hanging on and around the yoke, and the WalMart nature of the gauges themselves. I know, everyone's a critic, but still......

Indeed.

Not bad! I don't imagine a P40 makes a very good glider!!

The fun of turbine flying comes from start-up. Not a cough-cough-chug-chug-chugggga-brooom of a -360 or -540.... Just that sweet whistle, followed by the "whommp" of ignition, then the roar. Man I love the sound of the PT6 start sequence!!!

Do what I did - switch to Jet-A.....:ihih:

I do triathlons. I work out 6 days a week most weeks. Mix of running, biking, swimming, and strength training. Sometimes a bike/run brick, or a swim/bike brick depending on where I am in the season. Load and duration also varies with season. Right now I am enjoying the winter recovery time -...

1) The GA just walked on by???? He saw a grown man giving a 10yr old a BLOW JOB and he waited until the NEXT day to report it to JoePa? Not the cops? Not right away? 2) Not to excuse Joe, but here's what I think happened. Joe is an old guy, from a different time. This stuff makes no sense to...

John. Don't do it. You clearly have NO idea what you are getting into. If they can't explain it to you like you are a kindergartner (Denzel Washington used that line in a movie, i can't remember which) then you don't want to do it. You are fine as is. You can sell it in a normal...

What's more important? Carrying people or paying for avgas? If you want to take your family of 4 for local sightseeing trips, get the Cherokee. If you want to take them travelling, get a 182 and have them pitch in for gas.

The only time it is appropriate to say "Tally-ho" is if you are flying a Spitfire and have Jerry in sight. :wink2:

In general, selling your house and renting is smarter, and you will clear more in the end. If you want to liquidate your assets so that the nursing home can't get paid for its services (?), maybe try setting up an offshore account in Nauru, or maybe Liechtenstein, although that's getting...

A guy with his looks would never get on TV today. Sad.
