"Colin W Kingsbury" wrote in message news:ziZCd.1521 Just out of curiosity, are you near a densely-populated area where people need to know how to actually park their cars? Pretty much. Portland, OR. I live in Boston and always get a kick when watching some out-of-towner trying to parallel park who obviously hasn't done so in at least ten years. The relevance is that the FBO I used to rent from in the area discouraged "driving in" to tiedowns but it was not really enforced and even all the instructors did it. The FBO had no problem with it until the accident occured. Guess the owner was generous enough to leave just enough rope out there for people to hang themselves with, and finally somebody did. There's only a few spots where you can't drive into because of the narrow space between parked airplanes and a cyclone fence. Further down the line you can park however you want, but there's a twin and a 182 there, so they have more experience pilots handling those anyhow. -c |

"MCT" wrote in message ... If you're flying out of Gorge Winds, I was wondering if I could chat with you offline, somehow. I train (well, used to, until finances hit) at that school and had a few questions. Sure! e-mail me at gatt @ juggerbot dot com. -c |

Report it to the FBO. But don't worry about the high wing passing over the low wing. It is the natural order of things. LOL! Maybe I am easily amused but I think that "natural order of things" comment is pretty good. |
