1. 550 rwhp.....mefly
2. Private pilot.... mefly a beechcraft bonanza
3. Mefly

Anyone else fly???

Private Pilot (SEL). Flew a Luscombe 8A, and later a Short Bodied Mooney. I sold them and got out of flying. I miss that Luscombe. It was a fun airplane to fly.

Beautiful V-tail. Love it. Of course the Corvette looks pretty good as well. Not current for the moment but have flown a myriad of single engine planes. One of my favorites was an AA-5B, Grumman Tiger.

I've sky dived a few times and loved it. Unfortunately the wife freaked out every time I went. And yeah, no crash landings!!
LMAO
I've never flown a Luscombe but occasionally will fly a friends Husky. The Husky is a lot of fun.
I did a lot of training in piper colts, its a good solid airplane.
Thanks for the compliment. My hanger neighbor has a Grumman Tiger !!!

Only on the strip,,,,but flying was always a dream I had. Going to have to at least try one of those introductory deals and get up their and see what it is like. I DID grab the facing out the door seat when we got to do a training flight in NCO school before I was sent to Nam,,,and LOVED leaning out and looking down from the open door!! Now some of the flights over there were a little more scary!!
Also another NICE Bonanza thereI built model of one as a kid,,,they have been around for a while. Just curious,,,do they handle or have a different feel than a traditional tail craft?? 550 RWHP on the ground

Me fixz 'em but notz flyz 'em.
Have been in the left seat once in a 757. Now that was pretty fun. Also took my '77 Trans Am flyin' once. That wasn't so much fun though. And yes, it was a black and gold one just like the Bandits. Have been asked before if the Vette flys since it does have the wings.
