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.

Hey, watch it there, Max. My DC-3 was grand, to say the least. It was
being put up in a museum somewhere a few years ago.

The Gooney Bird was a great, durable airplane. 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.

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!)

No, no. 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.

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