Did you see Robert and his Mustang Buzzin Cussin today? He was headed to the airport to fly...


I did - was behind him in the Sukhoi in the run up area. Funny, we were at the fuel pumps getting gas when he taxied by to depart and we were back at the fuel pumps when he taxied back to his hangar!

Great day for flying - experienced my first accidental half snap-roll caused by botching a spin recovery. that will wake you up!

Inadvertent snap rolls are definitely an eye opener, Glenn. Look at it this way: you got two recoveries for the price of one!

Went, I tip my hat to Yves Rossy, and thanks for sharing your photos.

Great shots Went!

Good point Steve - and since I proceeded to screw it up twice in a row, i actually got 4!

ESPN seems to be very pleased with the images from the game yesterday. I didn't bother to worry them with the fact that I know next to nothing about the game...............

But I do know a little about light and composition.......................

Think I'll call SI and tell them I don't know much about swim suits................

Hi Ray:

We did all the waterwork on lake LBJ. He is a pretty new seapilot and thats where he did all his training so thats where he does all his landings for now. I heard all the corp of engineer lakes are off limits to seaplanes - have you ever heard anything like that?

Glenn

Probably because the lakes they create have tree stumps. Those stumps are a "cash cow" for the watercraft propeller industry. However, Lake Belton is pretty deep for a Corps lake, I think it averages 40-60 feet.
