How cool is that? What's she doing now?

No hating ... hey, some of my very best friends are southerners! (

Careful around Prentiss though, Lonnie's home base. It's called "Jefferson Davis County Airport." So just for fun when stopping in there to see the Steverson clan, I made all my announcements as "Prentiss -- Abraham Lincoln County Airport." When I landed there was a local militia posse out in...

Ken, that would be much fun. Let's do it. Curious about your math ... 162 NM, that's going to be 1.5 hours by the time you are done. so, going in for Friday and Saturday, that's 6 hours flight time. The hotel I think was $169/night, or $340? Maybe with taxes and such it will be $400. Can you...

Tony, once things open up again, it would be great to have an international fly-in day, Maybe London or somewhere. Let's remember to try to do that.

Just had a post from a new member in Dawson Creek this week. What City are you near? We had another owner from Grand Prairie who used to post but have not heard from him for awhile. We have several in Ontario.

I tried multiple times to do the hotel reservation online, but no joy. I called them and did it by phone and it was fast in easy, in case anyone has the same problem.

Dawson Creek! I have not been there but I know the history of the Canadian NW pretty well. Have done a lot of work in AB and some in BC. Beautiful place. One of my "bucket List" items is the fly "the trench" from Montana to NWT then into Alaska. YOu can probably give me advice. Anyone else want...

I meant Kevin and Dennis! Either ... both. The system used to let you edit posts but I cannot find that any longer.

Dennis, I fly out of Detroit Willow Run, have flown the Commander for 20 years this month, 3500 hours. Happy to answer questions or give either or both of you a ride an let you fly the bird. email me to scott@truen.com to text to 248.390.0773. Sorry I did not see this earlier but I have not been...

I am registered but I don't find the instructions for hotel booking anywhere? PS. Anyone who is not vaccinated will have to have the government-mandated tattoo on their forehead, so I am not too concerned there. I have a friend whose company was commissioned to do the artwork for it. He...

Oh, an no one has mentioned, The Commander sitting next to a Sierra or Arrow on the ramp? As 100 people which is the best looking? 98 will pick the Commander. The other two are blind. You will get compliments on a Commander wherever you fly.

Dennis, I base at Detroit Willow Run and would me more than happy to take you up. I am coming up on 20 years of ownership next month, with 3500+ hours. Would probably have 4,000 hours in her by now if not for that kidney failure and transplant thing (18 years ago, so don't worry, I will not...

I miss that guy. I know there are a big bunch of others who do as well.

Flown into KSAW many times for Wings of Mercy. Nice former USAF base, but kind of far from town. Nothing to eat real close but if you can get to town, many places. Regarding the ice ... if you can remove it with your fingernail, it was not an issue. KSAW has a 9,000+ foot runway. You could stay...

Great to see your name again Dave and happy you are back at Cape G. Those were "interesting times" back then, well, it ALMOST happened! Glad you are well.

I paid $1.15 for auto gas las weekend in Gaylord, MI. Could not believe it. Has to be at least 30 years, perhaps more since I paid that.

I am thinking Murphy posted this just to see if he could dog-whistle me and lure me out, responding with a WTF X %$@#$%^&%#%^$$##$%%%% Not biting, Murph.

The great irony was, the young guy running the tug was thrown off by the older guy, airport manager, who took over. BAM! I just look down at the ground, looked up at the sky, shook my head a few times, took a few deeep breaths, and said, OK, let's fix this. I never raised my voice. The airport...

Will we repeat the "Free New Front Fork" to the lucky winner contest again, as we did in 2012?
