    F-4 v. F-16

    F-105s were really fast. One of the jokes from the short timeframe that both appeared at Red Flag or William Tell was them telling the F-15 guys - "Check 12", but then thats about all the F-105 could do was just run like heck and try to get away.

    Overseas Credit Cards

    Last time I was in french West Africa, a Mastercard was pretty much worthless, Visa was the only card that was accepted, when you did find places that took cards.

    Extended Range Cirrus? SR-20ER?

    There is a "club" of those who have spent 24+ hours aloft on pacific ferry flights

    Extended Range Cirrus? SR-20ER?

    I would do it again, but not in a piston single. That time was enough. I have done a couple in Cheyennes though, one across the northern route in the winter, east to west, and then in the summer, west to east, going from St Johns to the Azores to Tenerife to Bamako, Mali. No extra tanks needed

    Extended Range Cirrus? SR-20ER?

    General aviation planes get ferried all over the world. They use ferry tanks, and get a permit for over gross weight takeoff. Depending on the route, they may need HF radio, and you definitely carry survival gear. I took a new PA-28 to Denmark in 2005, and the longest part of that was St...

    What is a deflection shot?

    Ed Rasimus is an acquaintance of mine. We exchange emails now and then. He has a story about finishing 100 missions in an F-105 over N Vietnam at the age of 23. When he got back to the US, he was too young to rent a car at the airport. Another friend of mine (Bandit 287 (R.G.) for those...

    John and Martha King Held By Gunpoint Over Aircraft Tail Number

    Sorry, but I had to. There was just so much potential, with some careful deleting of words and phrases :)

    Can hours logged abroad after FAA Private and Instrument count towards the Commercial

    You can, but you need an endorsement to your logbook for "South of Equator operations authorized" to show the FAA. The reason is that Coriolis forces cause an aircraft in the northern hemisphere to often stall and break to the right, but in southern hemisphere, that may happen to the left...

    Does a DUI 3-5 years ago Kill your chances of getting hired?

    Dont forget about the Problem Driver Pointer system that searches the national driver registry. If there was an action against a drivers license (revoke, suspended, etc), it will be on there. and air carriers must submit that paperwork to search it

    Looking for PA42 II/IIXL info...

    Getting harder to support, since they are not being made and have not been made in a while. I think some operators may have actually bought Mojave airframes for parts. I found it to be a pretty reliable aircraft, just getting a bit long in the tooth. The SAS - Stability Augmentation System...
