Very cool, and that thing goes over 200mph with me in it.

http://www.wired.com/rawfile/2013/04/finding-beauty-in-wrecked-and-rotting-airplanes/#slideid-19886 Dietmar Eckell has traveled the world in pursuit of ruin. His portfolio is filled with mystifyingly beautiful pictures of abandoned buildings, forgotten military sites and decomposing cars...

I feel like it is still the same, I am going to share that with my Mom. Born and raised in SF for 20 years. I am a true native (most people in SF ask "so . . . where are you from" and they NEVER hear back "Uh, I'm from here") Kimberly

Once I got SCUBA cert'd and on my ocean dive my thermometer indicated 43. None of the 35 people had any survival gear on. Our pax did have a personal ELT linked to the plane's tail number.

Our beautiful CA coastline. South of Monterey, headed towards the whale watching area out at sea.

Look at the Southwest Jet! So close I can almost see the pilot rolling his eyes because he has to wait for a 182 to take off.

Wow. I only met one of your dogs that you brought in your plane but those are some of my favorite pictures from that trip to the UP. I train dogs (and horses) and I always think that you can usually tell how a human treats their animals when you see them together and observe their behavior...

Whatever . . . it is my favorite vintage aviation poster! Even bought it and framed it and gave it to my best pilot friend for his mancave as a gift when he got his PPL! This avatar shows a clipper flying over / near the Golden Gate Bridge. I think it is awesome.

So just when I thought I had seen or done most of what there was to do in a small plane (fly outs, cross countries, spot landing contests, flour bombings, aerobatics, coordinated formation flying, uncoordinated / improv formation flying) . . . . I discovered something completely new and...

Thanks but I don't see many pilots (male or female) as involved. I can't tell you how many times I hear "how did you know about that event" or "how did you hear about that program" or "I've never heard of that". There is no CENTRAL place for all the aviation stuff. In my email, I belong to...

Considering I've met a lot of POA people in real life, and gone all the way to the East Coast for the fly ins . . . yes. But thank you for the suggestion, I'll change my avatar. Good idea. The username "Kimberly" kind of gives it away however.

I've actually met Tim in person and spent several days with him at a POA fly-in. In general, you (and Tim) and all of the pilots I've met in person have been great! Shelter Cove - for those of you who weren't there - was a great little fly-out that a few pilots got together and organized. It...

Oh geez you and I have had this conversation offline many times before. You know exactly the point of my post. (Sigh) I just basically keep wrenching on airplanes every weekend, for free, and figure they will eventually understand that I'm there for the planes.

John, I belong to 2 EAA chapters and to EAA National. I love the EAA. Some unique things I have seen that might help you: We recently did a "hangar crawl". Started with a BBQ lunch for $5 to go to the chapter and then we literally went to hangars to see experimental and non experimental...

Here I was thinking I was being accepted by everyone as a pilot, and it turns out it was only because I have boobs. Kind of why I left, actually. I really do love aviation. A lot.

I did try dating a pilot or two in 2013. Sure enough, I'm still single. Oh and some SIC who flew for regionals just flaked on a meeting after we'd been trying to hang out for a month. In general, I try to avoid dating pilots. I am now on the board of directors in an aviation related...

Yes. FOG / SCFC went there and Mach Buffet Meetup went there. Two groups. I almost drove. I did get to be a pax on Saturday in a 182 out of San Jose International. Annual Santa Clara 99s Whale Watching flight south of Monterey and lunch at Watsonville. 35 people showed up. Perfect...

UPDATE: I'm still coming but probably won't be early. I won't be eating either but I'll stay to visit until I have to fly. I'll find you guys around noon.

Was it really that long ago we had dinner? I still hear from her sometimes, she almost came to RENO. Didn't work out though.

I can only meet at noon, let me know if that changes. I've made plans to fly at 1:30 and the other pilot reserved my 172 so I can only be there from probably 12 -1. I may or may not eat but I want to visit with you guys, it isn't too often POA comes to my stomping grounds! I had everyone...
