Wow, I'd better get my goggles and leather jacket out of the trunk and spiff them up. Maybe I can get get some new hearing aids after I get the cataract surgery paid for. Is MR. Curtiss still building aircraft.? I wonder if the F, A and A will reopen my pilot's license?
I was in a plane doing unplanned T&G's at Edwards one day. Well T&B's. It seems there was this astronaut trainer that was doing the steep descent shuttle landing practices also in the pattern. Before we could get gear on the ground he was right behind us again and tower was saying break left again. Dang that bird was fast.
In Palmdale,California there is "Blackbird Airpark" where one might gaze upon the SR-71 and some other black aircraft. One should access the site on the internet prior departure for the airpark visiting hours. There is no entry fee and pasrking is free. Likewise for the Joe Davies Heritage next door which has more aircraft on display.
WARNING ! Attending these two aircraft parks without a camera can be extremely disappointing. VBG.....
You are clear for takeoff............................
You know I used to throw away all my cans from all the Pepsi I drink till the Missus made me aware of how much we could get back from recycling.. Bet I buy my spitfire first !!!! LOL
