Happy Landings

I don't recall my dad ever saying that! :biglaugh: :vfunny: :smokin:

I do remember him saying this:

"How many times you gonna bounce it before you land it, boy?" :eek:

Thanks James - great rules.

Don't know who said this quote, but it works:

"A good landing is one you walk away from, a GREAT landing is when you can still fly the plane afterwards."

Cheers!!!

B-29

Anyone in the Cincinnati Area June 24-30 come down to the Lunken Airport. Flying examples of the B-29 (only one in the world) B-24, and B-25 are going to be there.
They will be selling rides in the B-25

You can bet I'll be down there.

Hmmmmmm.... Road Trip?

James...

Thanks for the info!! Don't know if the wife would be up for a 5 hour drive just to lose me for the day... :rolleyes: I can always ask... Besides, I have an IOU on the Father's Day present - hmmmmmm.... this is starting to become workable... :ko:

If you're interested, there is an Airshow in Akron this weekend. I may try and get to that if I can get some time out of the shop. I'm trying to finish one project and start another while waiting on tools/equipment to arrive... *arrrrgggghhh*

Cheers!!

Check the web site below. The 29 and the 24 might hit closer to Home.
I don't think that the B-25 will be with them though. I think she is owned by another outfit

Let me know if you guys can get down this way. There are a couple good hotels nearby, and the airport has a pretty nice resturant.

Speaking of the airport. Lunken field has a fine history all by itself. Eastern airlines started there, and Paul Tibbets (pilot on the Hiroshima mission) took his first flight lessons there (he was playing hooky from UC med school). Also the they have a nicely preserved old terminal building in the art deco style.

Hey guys, here's an excerpt of something I got today. I still have a lot of bud's in military aviation and safety that send me stuff like this.

To refresh your memories.....A couple of weeks back an Air Force Reserve rescue helicopter crashed while trying to rescue some folks involved in a accident on Mt Hood in Washington

Here's a couple of photos... The UH-60 even though not my favorite (I'm a Huey guy) is one of the most rugged flying machines ever. The condition of this bird after what it went through will amaze you...it did me
