Aww, gee, you shouldn'ta-hadn'ta done that. Now zoom will have to sue ya over
that sign. g I'd like to see his lawyer's reaction to that.

Too bad I didn't have time to make my ANN Free zone signs and hang them next to
the others.Something else to take a photo of . Wonder if I'll get the worst
booth of the show award from zoom this year or if he'll just three-pete on the
Bozo award. LOL!!

I heard that zoomy is now claiming 2000 types flown WOW!! What a guy .

See ya

Chuckles;

2000 different types and still the same 13000 hours he had when he
claimed that he flew 750 models, I stand by the bucket of hair quote.

OH YEAH!!
Well I got rides in:

Ryan STA owned by Jack Vanalak
P-51 Mustang "Cripes a Mighty"
B-25 Mitchel 2 times once as tail gunner, Briefing Time and Executive Suite
TBM Avenger no name owned by Doc Dieter
SNJ no name owned by Jack Vanalak
EAA B-17 and actually made a left turn and hand wound the left gear down for a
one wheel approach at Cleveland Air Show.
T-6 Owned by the same guy that owned the P-51 who's name escapes me.
So using zoomlogic I've got time in numerous warbirds and flew many missions
performing in Airshows. I should be a writer LOL!!!

See ya

Ron,
Do keep us informed. I would pay good money (like airfare!) to be in the
court gallery during the case. :-)

Chuck, you'll never make it as a writer unless you get a bigger shovel.

"EAA B-17 and actually made a left turn and hand wound the left gear down for a
one wheel approach at Cleveland Air Show."

actually means:

"I tested the control forces required to make a standard turn on a B-17 and
saved the day by hand cranking down the landing gear on final approach."

If I were writing a performance report on you I could make the above sound like
you could walk on water.

As an aside if you can ever get a ride in a Ju-52 I think you will enjoy it. I
got a couple of rides in Martin Caidin's in 1978.

If that were zoom he would say "HE survived a crash landing in a DC-3 and
with absolute skill and resolve brought it in. Thereby saving a plane load
of women ,Nuns and the vice President Oh!! and a couple of famous movie
stars as well . In addition to fighting off attacks by terrorists armed
with shoulder fired missles and controlling pitch by yelling at the
passengers to run back and forth in the cabin...

I'd say you could count it as a zoom style mission,certainly, he would and
has:-)

See ya

Chuck (never flew in a DC-3 but I got 300 hrs watching them) S
If I remember correctly I flew in a DC-3 from Fairbanks to Adak, Ak when I
was in the Nav They told us of the DC-3's that crashed into the mountains
at the end of the island trying to make it in. So I guess I must have been
on many harrowing missions with near loss of life ;-)

If you are interested I can scan some of the pics I took with my Instamatic.
Pete Sherman's P-38 and some trainer (can't remember the type) flew formation
with us.

Caidin's sense of humour was perverse. Under the right wing was a dollar panel
labeled "nuclear weapons stowage." His "not FAA certified" warning was a sign
in Hollyweird German ending with "und we open zi bottle und poppen zi corken"
if it landed safely.

If memory serve Lufthansa has his airplane now.
