  1. This is the plane my buddy had. Awesome plane, cruised at 230 topped out almost 300. He ripped it all over the country alll the time. If you are looking for real, go with a Cessna 185 or something similar. Lots of them around and weak points and hazards are well known. Can get them for decent money. If you do get one, I won't ride with you though. Maybe just get a Piper Cub, you can take off in the back yard and when you crash it you can stall it out around 25 mph and bail it into the puckerbush without a helmet. http://lancair.com/320-360/
  2. Yah, agreed. A buddy's Dad who was a test pilot for Boeing and a fueling tanker pilot always told me when it came up, that civilian pilots really don't have the time to be good pilots in comparison to those who were trained in the service and had 100's more hours. My Dad had a bunch of guys he rode with when he came back from Korea. One of them opened an Indian Motorcycle dealership and eventually a Cessna dealership with a small feild runway right next to it. All of the guys he rode Harleys and Indians with eventually got into flying except my Dad and his buddy that owned the dealership. Long story short, 3 of the 5 guys that got into flying ended up drilling in. I would love an aircraft, probably a Robison 44 if I had to chose but I know i am not detail oriented enough to fly safely. Besides, I can't afford the upkeep. I'll settle for a boat for now.
  3. Benny, if you're gonna get into flying, which I would suugest you dont, don't go the experimental route. Go with a Cessna and take it serious. One of my best friends, who was an oral surgeon but didn't know a wing nut from a flywheel bolt built to experimentals. He was probably the most talented, smatest guy I ever knew but his mechanical skills were suspect. Anyway, he took flying very seriously but still managed to crash his planes 3 times. Last time in '11 he crashed his Lancair and didn't make it. He was a speed freak like most of us but something went wrong mechanically and he drilled in. If you're gonna get a plane, you got to be committed. Thats a stout looking machine.
  4. I used to like McCain but he is a senile old fuck now. Did you see him questioning Comey it was embarrassing and laughable.

  10. What's up feygitt!!!!!!11 Where's my fuckincow?
  11. All he gets is the third string regurgitation from the DU now. He's benched until he gets some results on a snowmachinin website.
  12. I think we all sign up for toms website and copy and paste all the posts from here.......between zam and Momo, it'll be wort 20x what they're offering.
  13. Stones stood the test of time. The Beatles were great and certainly not simplistic in their music but they had a finite run. If they had continued to play as a group, they probably would have become irrelevant like many bands from that era.
  14. It's good news for all of Maine. Good fellas at Moose and Pleasant River, good for them. Trucks were rolling right by there all day with Canadian Lumber.
  15. Snowden, the movie was actually pretty good. Might be more propaganda but they paint him in a favorable light. I don't know what to believe is the truth. But, fact is, a bunch of the programs he exposed are huge threats to private citizens. Are they needed?
