As heard on 123.3........
About 20 years ago our beloved, local character Tony Benson (P4) was up on a beautiful late summer day in his ASW-20. Suddenly, a panicked call from one of the other gliders (44), an LS3 (now El Bondo) comes over the radio.
44 (tense): Tony, something just let go in the glider, there was a huge bang. P4 (calm): 44, can you fly straight and level. 44 (tense): I think so, but something broke. Oh my God. P4 (calm): Keep everything steady. Where are the flaps. 44 (very tense): I was thermalling. Oh my God. P4 (calm): Okay, well can you go to neutral? 44 (super tense): I don't know. ...... This goes on for several more iterations, as P4 talks 44 down off the ledge and gets him comfortable that the airplane is still totally contrallable. P4 (calm): By the way, if this doesn't work out, can I have the trailer? Post script. It was just a trim spring that let go with a big "ca-boing".

Years ago flying in a contest at Minden, I believe it was
Andre Dumest Long transmission in French. Other: Keep it short! Dumest It is short, in French it just sounds longer. |

While on final approach to Saigon in the late 60's on a Braniff Int. Airlines - some will remember the wild plane paint jobs and Flight Attendants Uniforms. From the cockpit one of the pilots reported the temperature and humidity in Saigon, both were high, then said. "...and the ground fire is light to moderate." It was very quiet for a few moments and then there was the sound of forced laughter. Great way to arrive!!! Boise, ID Those freedom-bird flights were much anticipated and appreciated! I escaped Nam on a DC-8.............quiet as a mouse till we broke ground, then the whole plane erupted into a crescendo of YEAH BABBY, WE MADE IT OUT ALIVE! Thanks, JJ...........16th Tac Recon |
