114 parked on KSOW ramp today

The database shows this as belonging to AMES THOMAS E from Yuma Arizona. I don't know if he's a member?

It must be a real runner....
Tied down with chain..never seen that before
Why wouldn't you be a member?

 

[Commander91gm]

I don't know why anyone wouldn't be a member but there are a whole lot more commanders than there are COG members. Chains are pretty common out west. We typically don't worry about rust and the sun rots ropes pretty quickly. I carry my own straps with me rather than use the chains.

Sounds like a long-term commander owner. You would expect someone like that to understand the value of COG and be a member. I am surprised. Thank you for the info

 

[janderson]

could be reasons.. remember Tom's the guy who tried to get 20 owners to do a Genesys A/P. there's an old thread on the subject.
N114LW has Aspen Pro 1000 PFDs or MAX.
