@eman1200 From reading your posts over the years, you are one of the more "colorful" folks on PofA and I had hoped to meet you today. You indicated you were on call and might not be able to make it. When you arrived, someone mentioned, "Is that eman? I've heard his Mooney is a pretty ugly green!" Nope, I will not divulge who said that. Nevertheless, to my earlier point about the confusion of introducing ourselves with PofA names versus our real names, not until you posted the names of those in the picture did I realize you were actually there :)

Isn't a naked guy in a laundry basket pretty easy to spot?

It was nice meeting you Bill.

That was partly my fault. I freely admit, I fly from a podunk airport: N52 - JAARS-Towsend. GMU ground could not find the airport. They told me we cannot clear you to a fix. I explained, it's not a fix, N52 is an airport. I had to give him a nearby airport so he could enter us into the system. This took a while and gummed the system for those calling ground after us. Sorry about that. In the air, Greer Approach asked, are you going to N52, I replied yes and then all was right in the world.
 
Fess up….who was the Charlie buster? :)

Ha, I came close to doing that last time. I was climbing out and passing FastEddieB and saw him make a hard pitch down to level flight at about 4800'. I followed suit, thinking "maybe he knows something" I've missed...

I heard that communication. There was a contrite reply and I didn't recognize the voice so I assumed it wasn't one of us. But, we accounted for the like 8 departures around that time :)

It was me. :(

Not used to flying VFR and screwed up. I set the altitude to my cruise altitude. *sigh* I was expecting to turn west sooner, but should have set it lower to start with. I saw a second before he said it, but too late. :(
