Lear? deep sigh

My envy is beyond words. ;)

Don't be envious. The Lear 24 is, IMO, a death trap. There have been a
number of tuck-under accidents--i.e.--loss of control. Fly by the numbers
in good weather and you'll be okay. Push it toward its operational limits
and it can bite. To its credit it was nimble and relatively easy to get
into shorter fields. Two friends died in 24s, albeit one was simply a
navigational error (read: side of mountain). I've flown right seat in a 35
Longhorn, which is, again IMO, a superior airplane in all respects. Very
stable and forgiving, right up to the edge of the envelope.

Have you ever flown a Beech Duke?

Max



Nope. Only in 18s and 99s. And not what I consider much time in those.

But speaking of losing friends, lost my best friend in college to a twin
Comanche single engine rollover. The only plane I ever hated.

Document was written before there was much study. Now it seems that
the conclusions drawn in that work are under reconsideration. This is
one of the specific documents under dispute.

Wow! Talk about your fast moving fields. That paper was only published
a week ago!

In fact, its only a portion of a report that won't be complete until
later this year. It is intended to be the up most up to date collection
of all of the latest research and is the basis for the current policy
planning. Its fascinating that your personal research is so advanced
that you've made this all obsolete.





My mistake. I read the Exec Summary, scanned through a lot of the body.
It just read like an earlier study that has been so torn apart that it
no longer has any value. I need to go through the references to see if
the results of that bogus study (or others similarly criticized works)
have been used.



Time to report back to base and get the party line, I think you mean.

The Third Assessment certainly had a few vocal critics, and a small
part of the criticism may have been deserved. But "torn apart"? I
hardly think so. The proof is that the AR4 reaffirms the basic
conclusions of the TAR. I thought they even had a press conference
last month to report that this report was even more dire than the
previous.

the most radical environmentalists have
contrived a plan to get everyone's attention: global warming. It is little
more than a scare tactic to attempt to frighten a world populace into
adopting some clean and green practices.

An op ed piece made your point rather succinctly in today's Journal:
"Greens, it seems, always manage to find a problem for every environmental
solution."

Adopting clean and green practices is not a bad idea.
Going crazy with them is a bad idea. I'd just like to
see sensible discussion of the issue.

But, Nancy Pelosi saw first-hand evidence of global warming in
Greenland. I believe her. She's at least as much as an expert as Gore
is. . .


When Lief Ericson established a colony in Greenland, trees grew there.
Otherwise they couldn't have built houses, or heated them during the
winter. The colony failed when trees weren't being replaced.

Do you own a Cessna 310? One of my favorite airplanes. I've got about 400
hours in type.

Flew one in corporate charter for years. Great plane. Got about 3000
in type, 4500tt. Still my fav.


My nephew is getting one in a few weeks. I can't wait to fly in it.
It'll be a big savings over the family jet for short trips.

summer. I'm not ready to buy a hybrid car just yet, which will be the next
major update in the attempt to be as carbon neutral as possible. And, I have
three vehicles, but the good news is that two don't get driven much. Also, I
volunteer with a environmentally oriented group, which does local cleanups
of the bay....


Community Service doesn't count as, "volunteer work."

I'm one better than you. I fertilize my lawn with recycled beer,
which saves toilet flushes, and makes a really green yard, which takes
CO2 from the air, and my rose bushes are doing really well. This does
three things. The roses take CO2 from the air, they keep the pesky
neighbors from my yard, (rose bushes are nature's barbed wire,) and my
girlfriend loves the roses I give her.

Just one disappointment after another for poor failed Maxpoop...

Many of us were heading down that path before commercial airlines
started
having serious problems. Employment opportunities dried up and
salaries
didn't go anywhere. Why would anyone want to go after a job when the
industry turned into a nightmare?

Charlie, better known as Binary Bill (BB) would be willing to do almost
anything other than his current factory job.

Max


Factory job? PLEASE elaborate! Before I retired, I was corporate VP of
operations for a publically traded company that included manufacturing,
but it
was a LOT more complex than just that. I got an obscenely huge bonus for
being
instrumental in launching a very successful IPO. I've never heard of
anybody
referring to that business as a "factory", regardless.

Okay, Bubbles . . . er, BB. Take your pill and head off to bed. The
delusions will be gone by morning.

Max


What? You think that if I take a pill, your delusions will be gone? You
are more
deluded than previously thought.

CWM

These responses of yours are getting rather weak, BB. Step up the pace a
bit or I'm outta here. No fun.

Comanche single engine rollover. The only plane I ever hated.

The Twin Comanche had a bad rep. Piper added counter-rotating props later
to attempt to save the model, but it was too little too late. I've ridden
right seat in them, but no PIC time. Just as well, I think. My favorite
twin, beside the Duke, is a Cessna 337 Skymaster. Great performance, if
noisy, and engine-out events were no big deal.
