Yeah, I've heard them all before. We have to worry about bird strikes ... from behind! Bad time of the year to fly around here as well, migratory birds are on the move. Not unusual to get advisories from KJAN for radar identified flocks of birds. Big ones too, geese and pelicans. KMBO next to a very large reservoir where these things like to gather. In a month or two, starlings move through, and lines ranging in the miles for these birds, amazing clouds of these things not to be reckoned with. Fully understood on what you say about BAC, but after my overhaul (happened after an in flight cylinder failure) 5 years ago, pretty much the maintenance on my bird has been fluids and normal wear and tear. This year, all hoses got replaced (5 year old from overhaul), 30 year brake lines got replaced on my annual, so this year, just a little more pricey at 5K, but ooooh so worth it. Still cheaper to own, since I have flown 123.5 hours this year, and 145.9 last year. Next big project will be interior. Allen |
