In fact I can remember doing just that on a couple of occasions. Seems safer to me than rolling up with the meat cleaver spinning. Sorry, but the story doesn't make sense. I'd say Mr. Whitmore stuck his nose where it didn't belong. Put it into the context of when and where it happened. They shut off the engine on the runway, the prop stopped, and then they rolled at least a another quarter of a mile after making a 45 degree turn off the runway, rolled down the taxiway, and the made another quick turn and stop to get to the gas pumps. Impressive, but not exactly the thing to do in front of "THE MAN". Mike Weller Impressive, maybe dumb, but NOT ILLEGAL! Can you quote a FAR that makes this any of the FAA's business? -- Chris Schmelzer, MD |
