    Flying around Florida

    My bad then. It's been a long time since I actually flew there. I was there for a shuttle launch last year and visited the museum. They had several aircraft in the restoration hangar including a Phantom and an F-11 Tiger!

    Flying around Florida

    If you are trying to visit as many airports as you can, then the Valiant Air Command museum may not be a reason to visit KTIX (Space Coast Regional). But if want to kill an hour or two I would recommend it. It has the Outer Marker Cafe on field as well.

    Microphone Double Click?

    After being cleared to taxi for a rnwy 5 departure at CRG once, the controller came back and asked me to yield to a Dakota that had just landed with a flat tire. After resuming taxi, he came back on the radio to thank me for yielding and I replied with a double click. That's the only time I've...

    Gun Enthusiasts?

    I've always wanted one of those. My Marlin is an oldie but goodie. It's the 336T model that was discontinued many years ago. I (with parents help) bought it in 1970 and soon thereafter mounted a Weaver 2.5 scope on it. It shoots as well today as it did in 1970!

    Deep Space

    Correct. The additional velocity would equal the Earth's escape velocity and the wrench could be propelled beyond the Earth's ability to hold it in orbit.

    Deep Space

    Unless you can throw the wrench to a speed of about 7 1/2 thousand mile per hour, it will stay in Earth Orbit and eventually re-enter the atmosphere.

    True, but... Many jurisdictions take into account the basic difference between inadvertent "printing" and brandishing. As they should. Here in Fla it's common for those guilty of inadvertent printing to be met with 'go forth and sin no more'. Brandishing however will definitely lead to jail...

    TSA Hits the Road

    One of the ways it is doing this is by pitting groups of citizens against other groups of citizens. "Hey, look over there! They hate you and don't care about you!" Meanwhile, back in DC........

    9mm handgun

    I was greatly concerned about that as well after obtaining my permit, and I didn't carry for a while. I tried every way I could think of to "unsafe" my Kimber and could not do so without considerable force. That combined with a form fitted Galco ISWB and my carry is quite safe and very easily...
