So what's the deal? 450A session 2. Were Tomac and Deano the only 2 guys doing the quad? They both have a good gap in time on 3rd. Let a brother know that doesn't have the nbc app.

The Textron (Cessna) buyout/take over of Beech has been very smooth for the most part. There are a few knuckleheads but mostly on the union side. The company has done a really good job of promoting/funding Beech products even those that conflict with Cessna products. Really good employees from both sides are just getting on with it.

I just hope they continue to support the HS-125. There are a BUNCH of those out there. We need a second plane, and I'm pushing for a 850 or 900XP. They are a great buy right now.

I don't know what your requirements are but you cannot go wrong with a newish Citation. The dispatch rates are phenomenal and AOG support has hit a new level of support. Seriously, they have been increasing field support like crazy.

Wrong. But you definitely have to be in a financial situation to afford it. Not for the average Joe.

Take a Saturday off from vital and go be an Uber driver. Most likely make enough in one Saturday evening to afford the NBC Gold pass.

Brothers, I know exactly what you mean. I make stupid money for a guy that turns wrenches for a living but my youngest daughter has medical problems that gobble it all up. Gif can tell you how addicted I am to all things dirt. He's seen me burn a million laps at Jeeps (even though he still beat me on an XR100...ya bastard).

Been meaning to ask. I might have had my life in your hands.

Hijack over, sorry.

Someone should help them pronounce Peabody as well. I cringe every time they talk about Decotis.

He got hit in the chest by a rock and its causing him some issues. 2nd timed practice he basically rolled around and was obviously having problems. Sucks he was 4th fastest in 1st timed.


Buying planes pfft! I’m just trying to get a $45k medical balance bill off my back. Pretty sad state of healthcare we live in these days. I have insurance, good insurance and am still being asked to come up with $45k based on the hospital pulling prices out of their ass in hopes you will pay...

Couldn't agree more but that's definitely a non-moto discussion.

The Boss has his heart set on a CL350 in the future. The Longitude would be a great one as well, and I agree the Cessna support is great, but the boss is really sold on the Bombardier.

Two of our principals won't fly together, so it would be great to have a second for the short term. I just think the biggest bang for the buck right now is the Hawker, and I'm already typed and current.

Since my last post I had to run and pick up the other pilot, and drove past what I think is the last privately owned Beech Starship on the ramp.

I'll leave this alone now, it should probably have been non-moto, also.

Sorry guys.
