Moggy,
That was some beautiful airplane. I could picture loops, rolls and spins on that baby! What a blast.
Here’s a nice clean firewall and a new engine mount.
…. keep posting photos. I like to see yours and I will show you mine.

EN830,
Speed limit here is 70 mph, but my normal cruising speed is 90 mph. I feel most comfortable at that. If you go 70 mph, you get run over! Once in a while while drinking Coke, and CD stack cranking loud (my other bad habit) I hit it at 110, that’s when my heart starts feeling good. Took it to 130 mph once and felt real good. Had a few Cokes after that!!!
A330Crazy/Andrew,
Blue Pepsi, fat chance. Stuff stinks! I tried it and there was nothing great about it. Nasty!

Geforce,
Are you back to Coke from milk?
If not, make sure you get some double stuffed Oreo Cookies to go with that milk. Or better yet, get some of the peanut butter stuffed Oreo Cookies. It looks real cool when the black cookie is all over your mouth. Turns your tongue black!
Hey … another addiction is DRIVING REAL FAST! How about you guys? Like driving fast? I like to drive my car as fast as my plane. Sometimes feel like I can pull the yoke and climb.
Flylady :p

Moggy,
I like your classic plane.
Glad you enjoyed those kind words. Most people don’t understand the passion for a new engine and brand new valves. It’s so sweet that it’s ok to lick your fingers clean.
Yes, soon, very very soon, I will be enjoying the sound of a new engine. Engine and prop is mounted, and in the process of some fine tunning. It’s been three painful months of waiting for Lycoming Factory.
But, please … don’t stop …. keep posting photos. Show me yours … and I’ll show you mine.

… guess where I just came from with a few cases of … guess what!!!???? COKE!
I also noticed that 7-up has a new line with CAFFEINE … Yes, caffeine. I guess sales will now go up!
And, if you are in need of a super duper jump start, drink Mountain Dew, that stuff will make your hair stand up!
Flylady ….
P.S. This posting/thread has me dying laughing out loud. My bird is looking at me like I am loosing it!:p 😀 :p

Seagull,
I’m sure yours probably made more than 10,000 he’s received. Glad you took the liberty to e-mail him.
Flylady :p
This is my eight plane.
Previous included Cessna 172, Cessna 182, Cessna 210 (liked that!), Piper Cherokee 140, Piper 180, Navion and Citabria.
But, this one, you must first admire what TLC I am giving it. Smooth stroking ……. my heart beats fast every time I see this.
I will tease you with more pictures as the threads continue. Patience …. patience …..
🙂 FLYLADY…..
You guys are making me laugh so freaking hard!
Yes, COKE is it man! Forget that Pepsi sh!t.
I always have regular coke, caffeine free coke, diet coke, lemon twist coke, cherry coke, vanilla coke. I start with diet and when I run out, I keep going to others. Hey … did you know Coke used to be made with real coccaine at one time? My Mom told me that.
And when that runs out, then wine cellar!Start out with White Zin, then Chardonnay, then what ever is left …. Party!
Like that Smirnoff Ice / Blue stuff too!!! It’s like drinking lemonade, you can just down it! Especially while watching planes land and sports.
Flylady …. hanging out with the guys!
P.S. Rum and Coke is good too!

Two posts/threads going on this subject, so here’s what I read today. Expensive to voice opinion by AOPA, but it’s a good thing.

AOPA blasts Daley with full-page ads in Chicago newspapers
Apr. 6 — Chicago residents woke up this morning to find full-page ads from AOPA in their Sunday newspapers. The ads, which run today and Monday in the Chicago Tribune and Sun-Times, the city’s two largest newspapers, are billed as an “open letter” to Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley on the “destruction of Meigs Field.”
“We played fair with you,” begins the letter from AOPA President Phil Boyer. Recalling the decade of lobbying, legislation, and legal action to preserve Meigs, Boyer reminded the mayor he had promised to keep the airport open for at least 25 years.
“We took you at your word,” the letter continues, but “you opened fire on us by bulldozing the airport in the middle of the night. Not to protect the city from terrorist attacks. No, Mr. Mayor, you wantonly destroyed Meigs Field under cover of darkness because you knew that deception and lies could get you what free and open debate could not. And that you could get away with it.
“I would say, ‘Shame!” But it is obvious that you have none.
Now, the time for playing fair is over.”
Boy … AOPA is all over it. This was posted today on the AOPA site. Expensive!!!
