Re: stopped at Bethany, OK today I don't think he even realized the significance of what I was said. Too busy trying to type me in his computer. The reaction from several obviously senior exec types in the room was priceless. Funny I wasn't "in the system" I had been to Atlantic twice this...

Dropped a pax at Wiley Post (Atlantic) this afternoon. Walked in the fancy customer lounge where important people were waiting to board their rented kerosene mounts. After finishing a phone call to get my pax a ride -- the guy at the counter announced that my airplane "wasn't in the...

Re: Cabin Door Hinges Carl - I LOVE my gas struts! But long taxiing in hot weather like I had today is a PITA. Have to keep one hand on the armrest to prevent the door from opening completely. I've even given some thought to inventing some type of "door holder" to keep the door open a...

Re: Fuel & Oil lines - WELL NUT Re: Fuel & Oil lines - WELL NUT Michael - I did the same thing and paid to have well nuts shipped in. Was at my local farm supply hardware section a few days later looking for something else and -- a whole selection of them next door to my business! Sometimes...

Re: Elevator Inoculation Way to go on this Jim! Most of us have no idea what it's taking to move this process through the hoops as you have. We're anxiously awaiting those hinges! k
