    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    Wow that wing connection looks weird on the top...is this what they needed to keep the wing together or was the upper connection of the wing originally like this?
    The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".

    Wrong side Moose ;) These shots bring back great memories of that weekend with Mario and Mike. Such a wonderful event, who knew it would be two years before she took to the air. I wish I didn't have to travel this week....I would have used some miles and go out. Oh well...I'll be there for her first arrival at JFK.

    if you want to feel what its like, find any carbon fiber boat or canoe and hit it, knock on it a few times.

    Feels like our old racing shells from St Anthonys and Stony Brook.


    Good times~!
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.
