Re: 4th Qtr News
It was a great quarterly. I really enjoyed it. Saw Arash's 170 on the cover. Very nice. Thanks for all the hard work. I'd love to read more about member's 170s regularly in the quarterly. Doesn't have to be technical just what they love about the 170 and what makes theirs special. All the best.

Re: Apple IPad Mini review
Mine is supposed to arrive today. I'm looking forward to it. I have the iPad 3 and like it but I'm thinking this will be much better for flying.

Re: How to Groundloop
All this reminds me of the flight Darrel, a friend of mine, about Dad's age, and I took down to Guntersville AL. It was 1992, and Dad had just finished his Nuieport 28. Darrel and I were chasing Dad in Darrel's 1956 172. Darrel had just received his pilots license, and was eager to make a real cros...

Re: Minimum equipment required for IFR flight
Are you a ham radio operator by chance? I use APRS which is a ham radio feature.

Re: Motorcycle Pics
Wow! That's a long time for a bike to survive with the factory scheme on the tank and sidecovers all intact! Looks great... Only has about 2200 miles on it too. We used it on the farm to inspect fence rows. I've kept it going all these years, still hits on the first kick. I've even managed to keep ...

Re: Motorcycle Pics
I'm not much into street bikes but I've had a Yamaha Enduro 175 since 1979. My dad bought it for me way back when, brand new. I ride it on the weekends with my kids just like my dad did till i was old enough to solo it.
Lots of fun.
