Tempting, but I think I just about hit my limit. It's

Not least the descriptions of flying with trucks passing you on the

Flown smaller and slower than that IMC! you get used to it..

Bertie
Now what would that be?? A Tri-Pacer?

Not much slower that's IMC-capable than a 172 with a whopping 105 TAS.

Yes, who needs drugs when Kennie;s around?


Bertie

He was my DE years ago. He was one of the nicest guys I ever met.

Godspeed, Dave.

We just had the local DE go down in a Bonanza last Thursday night into
KCBE (Cumberland, MD). No NTSB prelim yet, but the educated guess is
ice.

Ferrying one. Did a bunch of light singles at one time. Depending on what
you call IMC, I've done it norod in needle ball and airspeed aripalnes as
wel, buto only for short trips outside controlled airspace, but in the
system, I've done it in a 150/
