Hey, we have a truce over political posts. Lets see if it works. Do

10-4.

Three of 'em - well, one is "mine" in the sense that I bought it, but
I don't "own" it.

In order, just because you asked:

'96 LeizureKraft 26' poontoon powered by a '96 60 hp Johnson two
stroke. I might repower with a four stroke 90 or ETEC - not sure yet.
This is the one I bought but don't "own". There are pictures of it
around.

2000 20' Ranger bay boat with 200 hp HO ETEC - there are pictures of
it around.

2008 Grady White Canyon 336 with triple ETECs currently located in
Charleston, SC - my kids use it for now, but I'm heading down in
another week for a little vacation. Haven't taken any pictures of it
yet as I want to rent a R-22, have one of the kids run it and take
from aerial images.

You a chopper pilot?

You know those things are like bumblebees... they aren't supposed to
fly. :-)

It's funny... I love aviation, and have flown in several private
planes and even one heli some years ago, but I never got the itch to
get my pilot's license. Flying RC is as close as I've gotten... that
way I get to walk *toward* the scene of the crash.

I've had my private license for quite a while and I enjoy flying a
lot. I had a lot of friends locally who had planes so using one on a
weekend when they weren't using it was pretty common. A lot of them
gave their planes up when the local airport was in major disrepair
before it was bought, then insurances went up, yada, yada, yada.
Rentals got expensive so I only flew a couple of times a month then
eventually I stopped, but I kept the license current by getting time
in a couple of times a year.

But I've always had this fascination with helicopters. When I was
still active in the Vollies, I volunteered with Lifestar every other
week or so just to get to fly with them. I love the things - it's so
cool to look at a spot in a hay field from 2-3000 feet and just plunk
the thing down exactly where you want it.

So I just decided to do it and qualify.

I'll tell you - it's a lot of fun - taxing as it's kind of like flying
in a constantly controlled crash, but it's a blast.

And you keep right on saving your pennies from your crappy low paying
job as a "contract" writer so you can go out more than 25 hours a
summer.
