Yes, that's correct. It was the fixed gear 182. Beautiful machine. Quite a
monster.


No...she's more of a kitten.

She's the final aircraft on which I checked out in the club, and it wasn't
all that long ago. The retract is quicker and more slippery...but 68N
*purrs*. I kid not. It must be the different engine.

Well I was coming from the C 172P they have at the school there ... so the
step up from the beat up ole' Skyhawks of the school to your 182 was quite a
shocker.

And in answer to what you said before, yes Shane is a GOOD man!

Whereas I checked out in 68N after having completed a checkout (and complex
endorsement) in the retract. Laugh Perspective is everything, I suppose.

Meeting more people like Shane is definitely one of the PFC benefits.
