It's amazing the crap we all pull off while flying without killing
ourselves. I should have been dead years ago with some of the boners
I've pulled off in my life :-))



Yeah, not many left now. A buddy of mine nearly bought one with his
brother when they were both fairly young, but they walked away from it
because of the daunting task of rebuidling the wing. The friend of my
dad's from the story had sold his by the time I'd gotten into his
neighbothood, but I did get a ride in his Apache. My first in a light
twin.

Had a buddy once who bought a 150 Apache. He had trouble fining an FAA
type to go flying with him. They liked it with both fans running, but
giving a flight test in it was another matter :-))
