I think a horn might be a good idea. Or turn signals.


There was a plane at OSH a couple years ago, can't remember the make, but
it was like a super cub turbine, and the joker put a train air horn in the
thing, running off of plenty of the bleed air...

He snuck up on me while I was directing traffic at a taxiway intersection,
and blew the thing.

I really thought I was about to be run over by the crash truck, and this
was the last seconds of my life!
It was funny, later. g


Haw! Good story.

I've yearned for a big-asssed air horn on my airplane many times. Mostly
when the dweeb in front of me waits 'til he's at the hold short line to put
his flight plan in his GPS.

BRRRAAAAAZZZZZZZZZZ!

Move it, asshole!
