The most grevious thing I saw was the cloud clearance stuff and for those of you that may suffer the dillusion the rolls were done in the 210 you need to look again. It was perhaps a 172 and more likely a 152-
For those that doubt me, go watch again. The shots that were in the 210 have a teltail GS reciver ANT at the top of the windscreen and no hump on the glareshield. What I think was shot from perhaps an Aerobat has the telltail hump in the middle of the glareshield and no ANT up against the windscreen ahead of the whisky compass.

No-im pretty sure the rolls were all in a 210.

Flight Express has maybe 50(?) 210s and no two of theme were alike. Look closly and you can see the manifold, oil, and temp tri-plex gauges. Trust me he rolling 210s.

Watching this really makes me sad........I want to go back to Flight Express! It really was the coolest, funnest flying I have done yet.

Gotta agree with dbrault on this one, much though it pains me to agree with dbrault. The older 210s have the hump, newer ones don't.
 
Well now he's someone unlike the rest of us.

The real question is was he on time? If he was don't worry about it.

Every day is like ground hog day. SSDD

Too bad the EA or AC was not on the ramp in TPA to see those "standard" departures! It does not matter what this guys stick and rudder skills are, decision making and an unsafe macho attitude balance it out. I flew for FLX for three years, 2001-2004, lost two fellow freight dog friends in that time (worked for different companies). I guess I just have a different respect for the job and safety than the person in this example.

Precisely. Whether harmless or horrible, this sort of behavior is not going to be tolerated by the likes of The Norweigian Hammer or The Guy Who Can Quote 135 Verbatim And Gives You Your (not merely formalities) Checkrides. It's a tempest in a teapot. A lot of dudes do things they shouldn't do in airplanes that don't belong to them. This guy just happened to be dumb enough to film it.

You should do so more often. Youd be right more often.:D

Howve you been Matt? Still living the dream here but im waking up. Im stuck in Laredo (since thurs) and I missed out on the weekend parties back home (the one weekend my friends have girl on girl wanting me to join but nope, im in south texas paying 15 dollars for hotel porn:mad: ). Im only a month away from my students loans coming out of deferment and Im stuck driving around an 89 crown vic-not cool.

On a good note though Im on a trip with the coolest salty ol' freight dog captain out there. Stories of drug running and whores are endless from this guy.

Yeah, okay off to the right of the radio stack-it's been awhile, thought it was MP and FF in one and Oil temp, Oil Prx and CHT in another...of course the fleets I've delt with weren't exactly standard after they got their second airplane either!

I did some time in the 206, 207 and 210 and while I liked the 210 alot the 206 remains my fave.
