I'm sure there has to be a White Hen open near you somewhere.

WTF is a White Hen?

 

[Mmmmmm Burritos]

I've seen those in Chicago. If 7-11 was a major airline then White Hen would be a regional.

[Kawasumi_Kichou]

Good ol' Hershey Bar Arrow II followed the same day by a Turbo Arrow III.

Sorry minitour, I thought those things were everywhere, my bad. They are just another version of 7-11's.

Where in the US don't they have White Hens? I thought they were everywhere.

We also have Stop and Robs, Kwikie and 7-11's at least in Chicago.

How would a chicken help the guy. He was looking for a cookie....not an omlet!!!

I think the better question would be.....where the He!! are White hens??!!!

I have been to 47 of the lower 48 and have yet to run across a white hen!!!! Don't even remember seeing one in Chicago.

7-11's, Circle K's, Quik Stops, Pantry's, Stop and go's and the list goes on, never saw a Chicken joint though...

 

[I.P. Freley]

'Nother Mooney M20J here.

 

[TrafficInSight]

C177RG



And, huh, isn't the six a fixed gear?

yup, the Lance would be a retractable six.

 

[KeroseneSnorter]

Oh....yeah...forgot....White Chicken...errr Hen...whatever....got me off thread!

First complex.... Comanche...I think..maybe it was an Arrow? One or the other, can't remember which came first.....too lazy to go digging out old logbooks.

Weird, I grew up in Chicago midwest area and you can't go a mile without running into one at a strip mall.

What's funny is how this thread has totally mutated into a 24 hr mini-mart trivia class.

Like Krispy Kreme, vs Duncan....depends on where you come from.

Got me interested now....gonna be on a White Hen hunt on the next trip! Just to say I saw one.

Happens alot around here.....typical pilots....

 

[Crizz]

Wow, another seaplane.

Lake Bucaneer LA-4-200

In fact, that was the first aircraft I ever flew.

I would have to say that is unusual!

[Kream926]

ADD perhaps..not good flyin mechanical birds and all, sorta like "highway hypnosis", but in the sky

 

[DC9stick]

PA28R-200 Arrow 1969 model Short wing, kinda falls outta the sky


Get my cofee at the WAWA

 

[jobear]

1963 C-210 with Land-o-Matic gear,painted baby poop brown.white and orange. And you guys thought I was ugly this was one hideous beast, not no mention the brakes seemed to be somewhere near the bottom of the brake pedals. Like landing a rubber band with a new pilot at the controlos. WHEW!

 

[jknight8907]

Please correct me if I'm wrong but:
Cherokee Six isn't complex. High Preformance but not complex

Errr, um, ah. Yep. You're right.

Better make that a PA-31-310.

 

[westwind]

Haven't flown one yet, but have been looking at a cheap Mooney nearby. The only complex that I have ridden in was a Meyers 200 (kinda different). What do you Comanche fans like about it?

Now, back to the real topic at hand. Here is the Leadville version of the White Hen, Kwik-E-Mart etc. (you guys are gonna love this!) http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/[email protected]/detail?.dir=/ab1a&.dnm=c9f8.jpg
