Watch the take off roll. Can you say "forward CG limit"?

Enjoy!

Actually, I saw this when it was first aired and if the pilot took off
with that fat a*# in the glider he should be shot!

Enjoyed!!!

I'd like to know how Mike got the FAA paperwork all done in the space
between "a few weeks ago" to flight time, never mind all those
repairs. Impressive!

I read somewhere online that the glider and the helicopter segments of
Pawn Stars are complete fabrications. Pure theater and no reality.
Neither aircraft was restored. The aircraft shown flying were
different aircraft than the airframes shown needing repair/
restoration. The wrecks are still sitting out of the way at the
airfield in Las Vegas where it was filmed.

I went back to see if I could see the N number. No luck.

I don't know how many arguments/discussions I've had with people about
"Reality TV"! It ain't folks!!!

The glider in the flying shot had a nice "sailplane enterprises" logo
painted on the side. I think that settles the fake question!

I fortunately missed that episode, and was therefore able to enjoy the
show for a while. Seeing that one kind of ruined it for me.
