1 Fatal ...r.a.h or r.a.p?
There are only about 5% of peoples in the parade (flying and builders
pilots). Another 15% standing by the runway and watching the parade ( sometime commenting and/or criticizing). And the rest (80%) don't even know there is a parade. Jean-Paul "kd5sak" wrote in message . com... "Al" wrote in message ... I was tempted once, but the temptation went away with the altitude...quickly. What really amazed me was how fast the altitude and airspeed went away. When the thing first quit, I would have sworn I could not get down to my departure runway before going off the end. I was wrong. Wrong by over a thousand feet. Al CFIAMI I'm beginning to be glad the wife would'nt let me buy a kitplane when I first retired 10 years ago. You guys have some real interesting stories to tell. Hmmm, someone should start an aviation close calls recounting group. Harold KD5SAK
