My personal favorite is "Illusions"

Glad to hear it!

I carry one of my copies around with me like some people may carry a
personal 'Bible' g.... My main copy is highlighted, underlined and
dog-eared and is clearly very well-used and loved! "Nothing By Chance"
and "Biplane" are two of my other favorite R. Bach books!

Mine also.
At one time I made a booklet containing just the sayings.
I may have to make another copy.

in the last 500 hours:


Congratulations, Dan. That is indeed a milestone.

Fly safe for the next thousand hours, and those thereafter.

Congratulations on the milestone.

I happened to be looking at my logbook over the weekend, reflecting
on the changes in my flying patterns since buying my own plane. A
year and a half ago. There's been a lot more cross-country flight,
IFR whenever operationally desirable (weather or airspace). I've
really enjoyed being able to go places on my schedule, and working
around weather patterns.

Angel flight has also become a big thing for me, with 8 completed
missions under the belt since signing up in January.

I just turned 200 hours today. Me and my (good looking) flight
instructor flew to Cincininati and got some skyline chili. As we were
driving the late model Jaguar curtesy car back to the FBO I had a
little moment of reflection aswell. Not too many years ago I was not at
all in the place that I'm in today.

Its funny how sometimes we need to have a big milestone in order for us
to look back and appreciate the wonderful life phenominom known as
change and progression...

If you ever go to an airport with a MillionAir they always have a
Jaguar as the curtesay car. Or at least the one in Cincinnati (Lunken)
and Columbus. Thats why we always go there

It was funny how we were both really cautious with our driving when the
Jag only costs maybe 80 thousand, but the bonanza we flew there in is
worth multiple times that...

Were they loaning you an XK-R? Only the XK-R's have sticker prices over
$80K. A quick look at http://www.Jaguar.com shows that an X-type can be as
little as $31,495.

Right. This guy has GOT to be a troll.

Unless his hand just slipped, and he really meant to type "Impala" or "1984
Crown Victoria"...

No, I'm dead serious. Go to Lunken Airport in Cincinatti Ohio. Make
sure you use Millionaire. Ask for the curtesy car. It will be either a
green or black Jag S-type. They have a deal with a local car rental
place which is how they can afford them. Do a google search for "jaguar
millionaire fbo"

And I just guessed on the price. I definitely remember it being a
S-type. And it was definitely a V8, so acording to Jaguar's website the
car cost ~$50K
