Is there a problem with rah?

Dunno about that, but the youth of today don't appreciate how we invented such nav aids as the first VOR at Stone Henge. Remember when Stonehenge was still just a field? Montblack Had another birthday this weekend |

It's nice that they're digging out the old pilots lounge - I'm hoping they will find my old "hewn from stone" E6B and a couple of early issues of Sport Aviation I think I left behind because the stone tablets put my ornithopter over gross on a hot day... |

Usually after a particularly nasty flamefest between a few members, many people are unwilling to continue reading, so they don't read and don't post. Give it a couple weeks. Flamefests, as "righteous" as they may be, damage the group. Just my opinion. -- Jim in NC You are so right, Jim. In the late 90th, this group used to be the most active group of them all. After some people joined that only had mayhem on their mind it dwindled down to barely active. It never really recoverd from that. Yoram |

Noah? It was impressive work, even though the plans were pretty basic. Last I saw it it was almost done but it was way short on wing area IMHO. Had plenty of room tho' :-) Chuck |
