    Jeeps are good.

    Nice rigs. I just bought my first Jeep this past summer. Bought a brand new Unlimited Wrangler. I started the search for a decent TJ, but I couldn't find one locally with the 4.0. That was a deal breaker. So, I ended up going to the dealer to buy a traditional 2 door, but that plan was torpedoed...

    Plane Down in Delaware

    We made the drive from Annapolis to Hershey and back yesterday. Slow going on the highway at times. Pretty much socked in this area. Not gonna armchair quarterback this one, but not a pleasant day to fly yesterday. RIP.

    One Less Courtesy Car at KRAS

    At least the price of fuel went down!

    iPad Games

    If you want to waste a few years of your life, give Pocket Planes a try. You can build an airline empire. I have made many an overnight oceanic crossing using this addiction to stay awake.

    MD - MA Trip Report, This time in an SR-20

    Nice. I just spent a few days in Beantown myself, except we did it the old fashioned way (via automobile). I'd love to fly up next time. How was KBED? Easy to deal with? Pricey? Wouldn't mind making a weekend out of the deal.

    Archer landed long

    I'm sure few people will appreciate your sarcasm, (which I do by the way. Good one!) this is a good point. I'm all for asking advice, but if I'm not sure about how to proceed with something so sensitive, perhaps sticking to hypotheticals is best. On the other hand, perhaps the OP was really...

    Back to flying after long hiatus

    Welcome back. I'm scheduled for my first occasion to log PIC tomorrow in over 18months (w/CFI, of course).

    Lowrance Airmap 300 Worth Anything?

    Maybe. Never thought about selling mine, but I'd open the bid at $200 and be flexible to negotiation. Good luck!

    Cessna With Droop Tips.

    Ha! That's pretty darn funny!

    Lowrance Airmap 300 Worth Anything?

    Don't know. What's the date of the most recent database you have? EDIT: I paid ~$250 for mine back in 2009. Updates were still available then, but I never bought one. Think mine has a mid 2008 database. Still useable but not reliable for airspace, freqs, identifiers and such.

    Is this pilot a jerk?

    Yeah, I made a gross generalization. There are clowns everywhere, just seems they are heavily concentrated in this area. I have met a good share of genuinely decent people since I've been around the Mid-Atlantic. Problem is, I've met a fair share of people like this guy, too.

    Lowrance Airmap 300 Worth Anything?

    I still fly with my 600. Too bad I can't get an update for it. Guess that's why I got such a great deal on it back in '09.

    Is this pilot a jerk?

    And it's people like him with attitudes like that why I'm starting to not like the east coast. What a douche.

    Microsoft Surface

    I'm interested. I'm looking for something comparable to the ipad, both in the airplane and out. I don't think there is anything just yet though.

    I am turning into a car mechanic

    I don't think it's so much the torque, but not tightening the lugs in the proper pattern. Just going in a circle is bad, or so I've been told. I've always just used the procedure recommended in the owner's manual, which seems to mostly be the "star" pattern. Haven't warped a rotor yet.

    Boyds Maryland Airport?

    My vote would be FDK. Almost equal drive time with less hassle. Just remember, FDK has a tower now. Don't be "that guy".

    Let me suggest something

    That and a few hurt feelings reports.

    Death and stuff.

    I agree with the above. But a word of advice from experience, keep the "is this a surprise" attitude and comments to yourself. The ones who are grieving publicly will not appreciate that. I learned that the hard way a few years ago.

    You guys have first chance to buy

    Ha! After 3 years up there, I wouldn't even be able to convince her to even look at the add, let alone go look at the property.
