Go no-go decision went bad. Oops.

When I do something that turns out to be a really bad idea like this...
I only hope no one gets on TV to broadcast my misguided thought process.
It makes my story to the FAA harder to fabricate.

PS: still hoping I can blame my forthcoming groundloop on a locked brake

'Engine was running rough on taxi, so he thought he'd take it UP and
check it out in the air.' Oops.

'...Engine had just come back from overhaul/rebuild.' Oops.


Montblack ...still propless.
Jack - My sniff, sniff ex-boat is stored in the barn at the edge of
the clearing. You just catch a glimpse of the house. Being that my
sister bought our boat, I still have visitation rights :-)

That's the St Croix River on the map (border between MN and WI). When a
boat is running rough, or we're on a shakedown "cruise" ...we always
head upstream, first. g

What kind of idiot television station puts a video on their websited
that is only viewable by IE or Nutscrape?

The video saids the FAA is investigating what caused te crash. LOL
That should be a quicky eh?

Probably not what people here want to hear, but the REALLY stupid thing
for the pilot to do was tell anyone that story.
