Re: SPRING FORWARD those clocks!

George sezs it spring. Dont try to tell these folks in the Puget Sound region that. It's snowing here and they dont like it. I still consider myself a Montanan where it snows every month of most years.

Re: Fly-in(g) Fishing

Abe,

Those shots are some of the best wildlife photos I have ever seen. They'll make a great screensaver.

Re: 51 LB. Blind Flying Kit

I did my checkride in the 50's with that setup in a champ. Maybe they got the decimal point in the wrong place. 5.1 pounds would be close.

Re: $100 Hamburger NORTHWEST (WA,OR,ID,WY,MT)

Someone posted a note on pacificnorthwestflyers.com that he had stopped in a few days ago and it was in the process of closing up shop. Too bad.

I notice that when moving the seat back to exit the plane, I need to rock forward slightly to as I pull up on the latch in order to release the cog on the rachet. No big deal, and, as was said before, its free. The FBO in S...

Re: tail wheel and Tube replacement in the "Bush"

On the way to the 170 convention in Tahachipi I stopped in Redding for fuel. I felt the thumping of a flat tail wheel tire as I got out on the taxiway. I pulled into the grass and found an old piece of steel plate rolled up in a ball against the bob wire fence. It was one of those plates that was us...
