    Tornado @ Rolla/Vichy airport

    They still carry themselves with dignity, even bent up as they are. So sad. Sigh.

    Christmas presents they forgot

    What about Mode C? What about ATC?! What about all those 747s and 757s and 767s and 777s and Airbusses (or is it Airbi?) who will be forced to wait on these little things taking up all their air space!!?? Who's on FIRST!!!??? Sigh. I guess I need to get a life...:rolleyes::D

    What would you do...

    I always thought that if someone was on the "active" (let's not get into chasing that rabbit;):P), the runway was occupied, and traffic in the air had to stay in the air:dunno:. Based on my CFI long ago prompting me to slow down a lot to allow a plane to get past the hold short line on the...

    SRR - Ruidoso NM

    Congrats on your successful trip! Now about those photos...:) Seriously, at your leisure, perhaps you could write up your landing and T/O experiences at SRR, including WX, if you remember the details. Might be useful to us later... Glad to see you made it back in one piece! Now just who...

    Personal Plates that are GA related

    Our local 94-year-old, who still flies his Aercoupe, has "IFLY-TO"; another gentleman has "IFLY4U". Both are infinite wells of aviation knowledge, lore, legend, and skill. I look up to both of them.

    Zero Gs. Does this hurt the plane?

    Is my memory correct--Standard/Utility design criterion is -1.52g? I do know that it is a value other than zero...

    Winter Flying & First House

    Y'know, Jesse, between yours and Tristan's videos, we are all reminded of the beauty and romance of flying. Neither Ste. Exupery nor Bach could say it better than you guys do.

    Major winter storm

    My elder son up in Fulton was trying to clear out his/neighbor's yards Friday night (it's after dark when they get home), and while pulling a large limb tripped backwards and pulled/tore a/some ligament(s) in his ankle/knee. ER put him in a walking boot after X-rays showed nothing broken; he'll...

    Aborted landing.

    Okay, Cap'n Ron, story time: Who is/was "Sad Dan" Roman, and what's the story behind the name?;) Also, FO=First Officer; but what's CA? (my brain is not processing right now):dunno: Y'all bundle up, now, y'hear?

    $135K -- What a bargain!

    Hijack time!! Chip, I appreciate your new avatar; methinks the only solution to MLB's addiction to outa the park home runs and light-speed pitching is for the owners to pay in zero attendance; that way the players can't be payed salaries equivalent to the national debt, so they won't be able...

    high oil pressure????

    I don't know if the aircraft service manuals allow for this, but perhaps you can verify that your panel gauge is correctly reflecting the actual oil pressure by using a known good, accurate test gauge that you can temporarily install in the same port that your panel gauge plugs into. Vary...
