![]() "Capt. Rob" wrote in message oups.com... Wow...i get two news cars and a boat within 10 months and some folks go nuts. This poor guy doesn't even realize that I own the all new 2006 Sedona and he's posted reviews for a utterly different car! Right. And do you also believe that Kia is an utterly different company now, too? Removing a leopard's spots does not make him any less a leopard. Good luck. Well...here ya go! Read carefully...this is for the NEW 2006 Sedona released just a few months ago! blah, blah, blah, snip Overall Review: this sedona with all the extra options are certainly worth the price . Is this review offensive? Let us know It's certainly inconclusive. Douglas Aircraft definitely made some horrible aircraft over the decades. If the all-new DC-10 was just released, and it got rave ratings from the magazines that sell Douglas its advertising, would you want to fly on one? Judging from the fact that you bought a Kia, I guess you would. Max |

The "B-dash-crash" (B-26) wasn't. And there were others, as I'm sure you know. I used to fly jumpers on a 3 named Mr. Douglas. Max |

Oh my, I was just lurking because I have school full time tomorrow. I think I may have met you before...I jumped out of Mr. Douglas with Bill Booth tandem (checking out a new parachute) in 1985ish. A friend of mine caught the episode on National Geographic. It has Mr. Douglas, another DC-3 and some Beech's (and my DC-3) taking up what was supposed to be the first hundred-way, but it wasn't accomplished until a few months later in Oklahoma. (I was there and have the t-shirt to prove it...heh) My new aviation boyfriend is a tandem skydiver, and a friend of his in Hawaii has offered him some big bucks to go back to Maui, on the North Shore where he used to live... Did you used to own Mr. Douglas? Seems like the guys name was Mike... What time period did you fly Mr. Douglas? Hmmm, LP (got to go to bed early tonight, sorry folks!) |

I flew Mr. Douglas (N7500A) for a DZ in Tennessee for one summer in mid-90s as a weekend job. I can't recall who owned it then, but Jan Aarvik owns it now. He might have owned it then, for all I know. John Travolta owned it a while back. I understand he now owns a retired airliner in addition to a G4. Max |

That DC-3 was also used in the movie about Ricky Nelson. LP |
