flying over 40 years now and have been places that books are written

And, the people who follow have the advantage of my having gone first
to plot the way. I think the same of those who I have followed and am
always amazed and humbled when I see what they did.
I don't even bother thinking of the many times when I landed with
either a helicopter or airplane on fumes and sweating it out the whole
way. Stupid? Nope... just a professional working the best way I can
under trying conditions.
Doing what the rest work from after we push the envelope and see how
far we can go.
No So Shy & Bashful with 21,000+ hours and still not done......

Zowie... but aren't you the flamboyant swashbuckler.

Related to the infamous Capt Zoom Campbell, maybe?

Would you like to be a staff writer for Zoom?
He can be contacted at Aero Snooze Nooz.
He's always looking for trailblazers and legends like himself.

Tell him...
Unka BOb -- sent ya.


Hey downunder..... I wonder what it is with you guys who seem so
offended by someone who doesn't mind commenting on the real world of
professional aviation. Some of the most dangerous pilots I've flown
with were Ozies or Kiwis. They didn't show much common sense when it
came to sticking their necks out. Others have impressed me with their
high level of professionalism. Doesn't that seem the way in the world?
Some are good, some are bad, and the rest fall in between someplace.
You make me smile with the flamboyant swashbuckler zowie. If I were
perhaps I could make a fortune on TV or someplace?
Nope. I am just a highly experienced pilot with the advantage of
having flown in many countries doing a variety of missions with just
as broad a variety of aircraft.
As for being a staff writer....does it pay anything? g

Thou speaketh too loudly, sir.

The last self proclaimed "PRO" to sound off as loudly
as you.... was anything but "PROFESSIONAL".

BTW...
I'm not at all offended at your flakey antics, other than it's
a shame to see you give real professionals a black eye.

Bob is entirely right here. Not a very professional thread at all. It
didn't read very good at all on the playback. Chalk it up to a little
too much Holiday merry-making. Hope nobody was offended.

Consider it "Withdrawn."
The aviation jury will disregard this thread, and pretend that it
never happened.
(well, professional lawyers get away with this...don't they?) ;-)
