I look forward to to getting back up to my stomping ground, even though I'll be based out of YIP.

Trip to Gainesville FL,

bunk22 rivals ?

The guy I fly with demanded we drive 1.5 hours to jacksonville to find a dog track. Totally worth it.

Now thats a damn shame right there. You know that thing is going to be a total loss.

I don't think this plane has been washed since it was made.

Ever seen some of the Ameriflight fleet? I think it's company policy to never wash the airplanes, ever.

Someone will rebuild it. 180/185s carry too much value to be thrown in the recycling bin.

I sure hope so. They are among my all time favorites. If you can fit it in there, it'll fly it where you need to take it.

^^I'm not sure but the only 8cyl GA plane I can think of is the Comanche 400

Jabiru, of LSA fame, also builds an 8 cylinder. 180 horsepower takeoff, 170 continuous, out of 310 cubic inches. Might not be practical, but I bet it sounds damn good.

Right main did not retract fully(unsafe gear indication), and got stuck in the wheel well. Right main would not extend, nor budge from where it got stuck upon first retraction.
Emergency procedures were done and exhausted. Multiple gear cycles were completed with no change, still stuck. Multiple positive G manoeuvres to stall buffet at 190kts were completed, as well as two touch and gos on the runway before they committed and bit the bullet

Oh man, breaks my heart to see that Electra down on the snow like that.

Meanwhile, in fairer conditions... Nick Jonas is my copilot.

Certified airplane porn, that.

Oh the memories of those gauges.

Must be nice to know them simply as memories.
