    TX First Lady in B-25 Incident

    Why didn't the pilot just push the "wing eject" button to get rid of the fuel filled wings, then there wouldn't have been a fire!

    "We don't serve your type"

    I agree with Henning that something doesn't sound quite right about this story. Having worked a bit at a car dealership I can't see any reason a salesperson (and the GM is a sales person) would deny a sale. They would sell a car to H!tlor!!

    "We don't serve your type"

    I may have misinterpreted Peter's statment as "raging" to indicate Freddie Mercury type behavior, and not behavior as you describe Ron. If my interpretation is correct, then I stand by my statement, if my interpretation was incorrect, then I agree with Ron and Ed's statement.

    Major winter storm of 2011

    I solved that problem by engineering my roof such that it could hold the "100 year" snowfall (100lbs/sqft). Right now the deepest snow on my roof is over 5'.

    Cirrus chutes down

    IIRC isn't pulling the chute the proper spin recovery technique per the POA for a Cirrus? Not saying he was in a spin, but it still sounds like he made the right decision.

    Repaint the Yellowbird?

    Go with the small N number. That way it will be harder for some nut who owns an olive farm to find you and sue you when you fly over his ranch while he is doing experiments on bacterial DNA!!!!
