Thanks for posting Charlie, great pictures.

Thanks Pat, I am due for my biannual in April of this year and I may be using a new instructor so this helps me greatly in knowing what to say to the CFI prior to flying with him. It appears to me that you did everything that you could to avoid the outcome. Keep your chin up and take care. Bob

Plane looks great Pat, It does look lonely on the ramp all by itself. Say Hi to Betty for us

Jim, I think a new modern gear pump for our planes would be well received by the group. I would opt for a new pump vs overhaul of the old pump if required based on what the new cost would be. Bob

Re: Great Bay NH The high today in Southern California only got up to the mid 60’s but we braved the very very cold temperatures to fly up and see the snow in the local hills around Riverside.

Re: Another new commander owner Congratulations Mark & Stephen, You guys now have the best travel machine available. I have owned my 114 for 31 years and just returned from a close to 3-week trip to Oshkosh & other parts of the mid-west (30+ flying hours) visiting friends and the comments from...

Re: 42W in Oklahoma! Very good write up on the trip Dean. Sounds like some of the trips we took with our Commander early on with mechanical issues until we got most of the bugs worked out. Weather is another thing and all I can say is be very flexible, something I was not very good at early on...

Re: Hello from Texas Welcome to the group, That is one neat paint job, one of a kind.

Re: Amazing weather Herman, Neat video - Thanks for posting. Reminded me of a flight into Scottsdale one evening many years ago, saw lightning east of the airport on approach with an intense downpour just after leaving the runway.

Re: Oh, oh, what have I done? Welcome to the COG Rik, my wife & I sat with Mark Burry & his wife @ the Osage Beach COG fly-in 2 years ago and they had a great story about their flight out from San Diego. We purchased our 114 back in 1987 and it has been the perfect travel machine for us. I am...

Re: I can cross LAS off the bucket list.... Kelly, I flew into LAS many times back in the 70's & 80's and stayed at the Tropicana. It is not the airport that I remember after looking at your photos and a current Google map of the airport. You did a good job going for it with no problems but...
