Subject: RE: BS: Taking the Amish to the Airport
Hey, no matter... Watchin' planes land and take off is cool... Actually, take off suck but landings, especially if you've ever done 'um, is still an art to be graded... When you fly into an air show you want to grease the skids 'cause you know every pilot is going to look over at the touch down to see how smooth you are...

Me??? I like unit pricing... I go for a small bounce 'er two but been known to grease the skids on rare occasions... lol...

BTW, I was just talking with my brother and he was tellin' me that a guy ground looped his Cesna "tail dragger" at the Kitty Hawk Airport just this week... I don't know why people convert Cesnas into tail draggers???

As for ground loopin' tail draggers... Did that when I was 16... Broke a perfectly crappy Cub in half but, hey, any landing you walk away from is a good 'un, right???

Hope the Amish enjoy themselves... Get 'um to go up some time... They'll prolly become Lutherans, 'er somethin'... lol...
