hihosland Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 The propeller is just a big fan in the front of the plane to keep the pilot cool. Want proof? Make it stop; then watch the pilot break out into a sweat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hihosland Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 More than anything else the sensation is one of perfect peace mingled with an excitement that strains every nerve to the utmost, if you can conceive of such a combination. — Wilbur Wright Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hihosland Posted November 10, 2009 Author Share Posted November 10, 2009 Within all of us is a varying amount of space lint and star dust, the residue from our creation. Most are too busy to notice it, and it is stronger in some than others. It is strongest in those of us who fly and is responsible for an unconscious, subtle desire to slip into some wings and try for the elusive boundaries of our origin. — K O Eckland, 'Footprints On Clouds.'

Guest ozzie Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 i do remember a pilot getting his returns on me after i played a joke on him in the pub the night before. i climbed out with one foot on the wheel both hands on the strut. i looked in at the instuctor and the pilot waved bye bye and took his foot off the brake..foot flew off the wheel and i took a death grip on the strut. trying to hook a leg on the strut i saw both pilot and instructor (John M) laughing. remembered i was wearing a chute and just let go. two lessons there. don't play tricks on pilot and a big difference between jumping and falling.
