OOH! A reason to post a reply! MORE POWER MR. SCOTT! I need posts! LOL

Bruce - Do you know anything about diving medicine? This thread made me think of my wife who gets TERRIBLE reverse squeezes when she ascends from diving. She has some problems descending, but does ok if she goes slow. Ascending causes great pain, and nose bleeds more often than not. We talk of...

OOH! I almost forgot! If you get to STL, you HAVE to go to the City Museum! (http://www.citymuseum.org/) We went there with our kids, and I was all set not to have any fun. Boy was I wrong! Picture a GIANT playground with all sorts of "recycled" stuff - Like a 3-5 floor jungle jim that passes...

Not to discourage you from MKT, but OWA might be a "cooler" stop. They have a Cabellas that will pick you up at the airport (free) with a great motel right next door with a Green Mill on site. OWA is also the site of Rare Air (http://www.rareaircraft.com/) where there usually is something cool...

I _had_ a similar setup in my 172, before I redid the intercoms, and it worked well. As far as stereo headsets, they would improve the sound, but probably not enough to warrant the cost, and if your plane is not setup for them, you might only get comm audio in one ear. I'm curious about what...

KMKT? How did you choose that place? Just curious, as I went to college just a few miles north of there! I now live in Minneapolis, but would be glad to swing down to treat you to some of the "local" flavor! Scott

Brian - What time are you heading over? I am coming into Phx on Thurs, and plan on doing some flying on Sat. I may swing by! It would be fun too hook up! Anyone else coming? Scott

Its SE - 145 degrees, and 31 miles from Phx Sky Harbor.

OOH! I am supposed to come down to AZ for a few days! Sounds like a good plan! How bad is the traffic? I am either coming in my plane (possible, but unlikely) or will use the one that I typically rent while in AZ. S.

Portable DVD players and gameboys (connected to their own headsets) are life savers. My kids (2 girls, 8 and 11) have flown with me since day 1. After a particularly long trip back from the East Coast in our 172 we arrived back home and tossed everything in the car for the short drive home...

Can we consider it a "majority" with 11 votes? LOL - Hopefully this post will "bump" this topic and get more input! S.

Dang Carol! You are too quick! I was just going to post those directions myself! S.

One thing that _may_ work at AOPA, that is in place at another board I frequent is just "locking" a thread when it spirals out of control. Unfortunately most people do not have the sense to just walk away from a fight, and must have the last word. If the webmaster (or whoever) just locks the...

I get the same thing on IE. I figured out that if I don't logout (at the top right) I never have to re-login (Duh?), so its not an issue for me. I wonder though if it shows me as "on line" all the time? S.

OOH! COOL! We are going on a flyabout for spring break, hopefully ending up in the islands off FL - Assuming the weather gods like me. If we get in your neck of the woods, we'll swing by and say hi! The girls would love it! THANKS! S.

You bet! Maybe in my own plane, eventhough sucking twin time in Lance's was WAY cool! :) If I get down, can I stop by your grass strip? Where is it exactly? S.

LOL - I _think_ that might be the WRONG U of M - I am in chilly Minnesota with Lance, and co. Funny we have an Orono as well! :) S.

I may regret this, and I don't know how this group works things, but I could be persuaded to help moderate such a forum. (Would that give me a valid reason to tell my family I HAVE to fly? LOL)

I hate the concept of moderators, and I did not want that at AOPA. I think the idea of a self-moderated community (like slashdot) works very well. I am hopeful that the idea of "karma" points here will keep folks civil, without the moderators stepping in. They certainly have a use, but only...

just my $0.02, but I'd love to see a "places to fly" forum. I'm always looking for the odd, fun "local" spot on my cross country flyabouts. If we had enough input from members, they could list "cool" spots in their neck of the woods. S.
