    Maybe an award of wings to put on your mantelpiece might be better. The club shows its respect for your achievement without tempting you to embarrass yourself.

    So did we, but it was the pre-digital age.

    I see there are enamel wings available for the Mile High club.

    How about this for adrenalin boosting?
  5. pmccarthy
    The authorities should look into it.

    Just another shithole.

    IMHO there was more responsible driving when we had few speed limits. When I learned, there was no open road speed limit and just one in-town speed limit. Every driver had to decide what was safe for the conditions. If you got it wrong, Mr Plod could charge you with "speed dangerous" or "manner dangerous". Now there are varying limits everywhere, and most drivers take them to be the mandatory speeds for driving that segment. Thye drive to the limit regardless of conditions. I know when I say "slow down a bit" SWMBO replies "Its 80 here" and ignores me.

    I try not to post if I have had a few.

    It was a very pretty plane.

    No, a private pilot cannot fly for hire or reward. You need a commercial pilot, who is trained and tested to a higher standard.

    Hope they are not drop bears.

    Not so as far as I know. Most new transponders in new aircraft may be ADSB capable but don't have to have a GPS source installed.
  13. pmccarthy
    Yes of course, thanks.

    What’s with the fixed nosewheel on VH-TVP?
  15. pmccarthy
    It would be OK if he had an ASIC.

    But no entry to CTA without a current class 1 or 2 medical.

    Assuming this is alcohol related. I was a teenager learning how to handle alcohol ( and often not) when I was also learning to fly. But I cannot conceive of thinking it would be ok to go flying when pissed. Even in my worst moments.

    But did he have an ASIC?
  19. pmccarthy
    Plenty of them in Alaska.

    CU

    Just a highly strung pilot.
  22. pmccarthy
    Do you have any photos to prove you were there?
  23. pmccarthy
    Weaving and looking back over your shoulder.

    I reckon I did my best ever short take-off yesterday without trying.

    The usual constraint is access to the fuel selector. eg the PA-28
