    Places to live in FLL

    Ain't no such place. Fort laud. is like a HUGE surburbia of a city, bunch of townhomes, condos, etc within walking distance to....your car. And nothing around them, just the odd supermarket and ugly strip mall to provide for the local surburbia sheep. The ONLY happening places in Fort...

    ultimate floatplane...(single)

    Hey you are the guy who plopped the 182 down by Sample Rd, on your way to FXE? Great job, I'm sure you're happy we gotta lotta lakes round here! I saw the burnt out and wingless hull on the west side of the airport the other day, a sad site. What happened????

    Is it ever legitimate to use reverse thrust before touchdown?

    On airliners.net you can find a bunch of photos of the old ruskies and their Il-62s, Tupolevs et al with their buckets open prior to touching down - though they may have had only the buckets open without applying thrust. Couldn't hear the noise by looking at the picture.

    Focke-Wulfe 149?

    Found the video (along with other interesting ones) http://www.pozefilm.de/genav.html (last vid, "Piggi") Also, get a kick of that Piaggio 166 vid with their pusher GO-480s! I saw one at Sun n fun a few years ago.

    Focke-Wulfe 149?

    No experience with the 149 but I'm sure that geared GO-480 will need a lot of babying, vs. a direct drive. Don't know the fuel burn, though I do recall reading that the IGSO-480 was a guzzler. Plus the additional maintenance on the planetary gear. TBO around 1,200. But man they sure do sound...

    Legacy Pilots in Brazil crash being charged

    :rolleyes: Go ahead and spam Embraer if it makes you sleep better at nite, certainly they will suffer the wrath of your spam attacks. Embraer was privitized in 1994. The government does have a very small slice of the pie (preferred stock) but I think they only weigh in on the defense side...

    Please Help Fellow Pilots Stuck In Brazil Come Home

    New Twist: they are being charged Oh-oh... :( Article doesn't mention exactly what the charge is...this is baffling considering they were just granted their passports! http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/americas/12/08/brazil.pilots.ap/index.html

    Vegas Baby, Vegas

    Congrats! More of my Vegas hijinks... - In my short experience, my impression is that Vegas is split into 2 halves: One for the lowballers, where you'll find $1 budweisers and $5 dinners - anyplace on Fremont Ave. for example. Then, you have the upscale hi-roller hangouts like Caesar's...

    Mountain Waves

    This 707 pilot also felt the wave - albeit only once, and much to the chagrin of his pax! http://www.airdisaster.com/cgi-bin/view_details.cgi?date=03051966&reg=G-APFE&airline=British+Overseas+Airways Thought the link included famous accompanying photo of 707 floating to earth, guess not.

    2 Stroke reliability

    I thought he had a 2-stroke "seizure", not run out of gas. I'd think it be hard to run out of gas, simply look in back and see if there's gas sloshin in that 5 gal semi-transparent tank
