zzz BBob fell asleep at the wheel again zzz was Need Microbalancer
I may not be a high time pilot but there aren't many people about whom three training captains at American Eagle have said flies better than 90% of captains they train on the ERJ and Saab. And I had three JAL training captains tell me I could fly a 747 better than moooozer. Walt |

Really? Got emails? I'll gladly exchange them so we can find out who is
telling the truth. I'll be waiting, but not holding my breath. "B25flyer" wrote in message ...

I used to fly A310's out of
Southeast Asia with "the queen of the Sudan." Hey, that's what she called herself. Said she still suffered from the injuries from the mine. Her story was she was sueing because of the fact info was available about the mined condition of the runway but no NOTAM type info was ever given to the crew. After SAT went under her suit was mute. Any of that close? Nice to meet you BTW, pacplyer So that's where she ended up...thought she was with UPS or FEDEX. If you ever see her again tell "Lemmon Pie" (if we called her sweety pie she promised to do nasty things to parts of the male anatomy) I said hello. As for the NOTAM stuff...hell there was a NOTAM for the entire country for mines and other nasty things. Any more questions about the difference between **** and shinola?? BWB you want to step in here another comment? Walt |

Old Walt here will tell you about all the days he spent flying C-130's with Air America....wonder how much of that is bull **** or shinola? Maybe a mixture of both. To answer your question about what I've been doing, I built a hangar here at the house that's 36 x 36, has an 18 foot lectric door on the front that opens to 10' 6" so I can get an R-22 in it. I put a restroom in it so I don't have to hang my dick out the door on a tree to pee, nor do any ladies that might need to use the john. I also put an LVL beam across the thing paralleling the trusses so I can hoist 12,000 pounds of any ****ing thing I deem hoistable to the 10 foot ceilings. I've got a great air compressor in there and lots of bench space I built along two walls. I'm in the process of bolting down all my reloading equipment (presses) so I can reload my 50 Cal. Grizzly rounds with tracer ammo and such, plus my Mini-14's with the 223 rounds and the 44 mag pistola rounds...you know, all the toys most men have. Holy ****. You've been busy! All you need now is a couple of gunner windows on the sides and a turret on the top. But the coolest thing I've just done is bolt a car starter motor and ring gear to my Snobird gyroscope so I can sit in the seat and spin up the rotor blades to autorotation speed. I used to have to do that by hand, now it just drains one motorcycle battery completely to do it. I spun it up today in fact. Then I stopped it and tried to spin it up again (in zero wind conditions). Didn't work. The Voltage on the battery was down to 4 Volts during the second spin up. I gather the engine on the gyro has no generator? I don't know squate about gyros, so I don't know what the hell's a "Snobird." I tried to hover an R22. Once. The entire goddamn flight school was in tears. I want to try it again but I gotta find some other place to do it. All I need is a bigger and heavier battery, but that means I have to lose about another 10 pounds off my big fat gut to compensate for it. What battery do you have in there now? Just have to bite the big one and stop eating pizza and drinking Newcastle beer. I stopped eating crap after spending three weeks in the hospital with my side cut open so the docs could shuttle me back and forth to the OR to stuff me full of gauze after my pancreas went south. Learned my lesson real quick. |
