    LOL, didn't you just complain about waning vision? Be sure to post a NOTAM before your ride to the flight line. :rofl:

    It's OK. I ride it fast to decrease time in the danger zone.

    Seriously though, I do wonder if the girls at the FBO make fun of me when I leave.

    I had one of my friends up your way get some "spy shots". Yeah, I guess you Canuckistani aviators do put on a hell of a "Mustache March"

    I tried racing a F16 on takeoff with my KLR last week. I lost bad but still felt cool.

    Imagine the "Holy Crap!" reaction when you realize you had these laying around.

    https://www.cnn.com/2019/07/02/us/nasa-intern-moon-landing-footage-sothebys-auction-trnd/index.html

    NASA sold moon landing footage to an intern for $218. Now, the tapes could sell for millions

    "The tapes were sold by accident to NASA intern Gary George in 1976, who purchased the set unknowingly among 65 boxes of videotapes at a government surplus auction for $217.77. He resold most of the tapes to local TV stations for a profit but held onto three of them labeled "APOLLO 11 EVA | July 20, 1969 REEL 1 [-3]" at his father's suggestion, according to Soethby's."

    Kinda sad!
    Brought back memories of when I learned to fly (1975). Tail dragger experience is not all that common anymore.

    Googled N2788C. Dude is 80+.
    I wonder if he owns the rest (or if he's still alive).

    87 fuel added as needed.
    One of my goals is to a) get my butt certificated, b) get as much tail dragger time as possible- if I happen to win the lottery and get a Kitfox or the like in the mix, that would be nice too... :)
