Leaving Usnet Groups, Bye

I don't know what database you are using, but I suggest you try using
the one the FAA maintains.

http://162.58.35.241/aadatabase/login.asp

It most certainly does contain former pilots - even ones who haven't
flown for decades. There is also no cutoff date and no requirement to
hold a current medical.

Interesting website. I put in my father's name and it came up! He passed
away a couple of years ago and hasn't flown many years beyond that. I
put is my first and last names and came up with five of us. Different
middle names except two.

Finally, can't we all get along? All of these groups should be for
sharing information, experiences, requesting assistance from one
another, etc. And if it gets out of hand, do not respond. Just stop it.
You can't stop the other person from posting, but by not replying the
thread will die.

Let's all have fun and learn.

That would be it for me. Lost the medical years ago. That's the reason I

You're not a Pilot any more. you are a FAILURE. If you were a pilot,
you'd still be flying.

****ing loser.

LOL. The troll must be jealous.

How many hours have you logged?

Duhdley is not a
pilot. he may have been one, but on this day, in the year 2005, he is
not a pilot. He is nothing but an old "remember-when" and nothing more.

Which is worth more to every single pilot here in a single post than you
will ever be.
Neil Armstrong is a washed-up astronaut. But he still walked on the moon.

I say again, you Republicans are as stupid as your leader.

Guys like these are why Democrats don't win elections. Every intelligent
thing a liberal leader says is undermined by some clueless jackass like
this, which is what people remember when they think of liberaldom. In fact,
guys like this are the best thing to happen to Republicans.

But, let's get back on the subject--flying--which should pretty much push
this guy right out of the loop.

Anybody know the Vancouver pilot that crashed in Portland, Oregon this
weekend?

You may wish to wash that egg off your faces...

You republicans really are as stupid as your leader.

I'm not a Republican, but you're stupid. The real pilots out here, which
is to say not you, know Dudley's Dudley because of the accuracy and quality
of information he gives.

He knows things and says things native to aviation that guys like you
wouldn't understand, which is why the vast majority of people out here who
don't care whether his name is "Dudley" or "Old MacDonald" recognize him as
an accomplished pilot.

We wouldn't expect you to understand, because you're not an aviator.

As a non-Republican, I'm embarrassed to see you speaking on behalf of
non-Republicans. It's guys like you that scare away the moderate voters.

The IFPF was an honor society. It's "official function" was simply
fellowship. Most of us knew each other, and shared a common
interest.....flight safety
in the demonstration environment.

Hey, is/was Dick Schramm the guy that did that really strange airshow
performance where they pretended somebody got in the Piper and bounced it
helter skelter all over the runway?
Saw that fifteen years or so ago. That was great stuff. The entire family
next to us thought the announcer was serious.

That was the same show (Hillsboro, Rose Festival Airshow) in which the wing
walker fell off and they had to figure out how to rescue him as the plane
ran out of fuel. 80,000-100,000 people dead silent. That was surreal!

Well, that's easy enough to fix. My commercial license has my social
security
number on it as well. I sent them $2 and they're supposed to send me one
of
those new plastic licenses with a new number on it.

It's worth $2 just for the card!

As opposed to all the clueless jackass Republicans? (Rush, O'Reilly, et al)

Come on...both parties have plenty of clueless jackasses to go around.

Democrats certainly do win elections (so you've started with a false premise
anyway), and the number of clueless jackasses on either side has little to
do with that, one way or the other.

Frankly, the incredibly slim margins that have been deciding elections
around the country (and including the Presidential one, of course) is
evidence to me that NEITHER party is doing a very good job addressing things
people really care about. Most people are obviously just flipping a coin.

Nope...I did find myself wondering if the airplane was a Cessna 150
though...

Why do you waste your time on a Usenet troll? This kid's probably about
14 and using daddy's computer to jerk people around when he should
be doing his jr high homework.

Naw. The sad thing is he's probably 40, drunk and living in his mama's
basement.

Odds are he failed a medical or got kicked out of flight school, which is
why he's taking it out on Dudley (who doesn't have a medical and is
otherwise everything this loser wishes he was big enough to be.)

The pilot you are referring to was Dick Schram Sr. "The Flying Professor"
and good friend. He was killed at the Reading Show on June 4th 69 when the
stick came out in his hand during a loop in a borrowed Cub that had been
used for a photo hop the day before. The cotter pin was never replaced in
the stick bottom.
It was a missed item in Dick's usually thorough preflight before his clown
act.
His son Dick Jr, was on the mike narrating as Dick went in. I was there. It
was a bad day to say the least.
Dick's accident was used by all of us for years, and is still used today as
an example of the need for absolute thorough preflight inspections by
airshow performers. Dick Jr. was the Public Affairs Officer of the Blue
Angels.
Both of these fine people were personal friends and members of the IFPF.
