He just LOVED flying. It's kind of hard not to like people like that: - Daedalus - Da Vinci - Orville and Wilbur - Lindbergh - Hannah Reitsch ALL of them just wanted to fly, to get up there and fly. Kind of cool!

Sorry to read here about your bad luck, red. That's no fun at all. That has got to be some SERIOUS stress to shear those diameter bolts in that quantity. I mean I'm no metallurgist or truck mechanic, but right?!

Well, it doesn't of course, but it sure identifies you as a funny man with a sense of humor! :beer::naner:

These catalogs come in all the time, and I can't remember if i posted each aircraft or not. But here's a bunch all on one page, pricey and out of my league but look to be top-notch in quality:

That "AWOL" rig is a super hoot. I'm especially liking the fender lantern. :naner:

The old "boondockers", remember them well. :beer:

That manuever in the second vid, from 1:07 - 1:15 (+/-) is pretty remarkable. I wonder what G's that throws against the pilot?
