Most memorable flight
(that you are willing to admit to!): |
It is really certain aspects of many flights that are most memorable to me, such
as flying with a great crew, or ILSs to minimums in Santa Barbara when the air is
as smooth as silk, or flying in the beauty of SE Alaska.
|
Favorite airplane: |
The P51 Mustang...what else..!
|
Favorite airport: |
Santa Paula Airport, Santa Paula, CA where I first soloed.
|
Favorite flying flick: |
I like the Bugs Bunny cartoon where the airplane is crashing, but Bugs puts on the
brakes and the airplane stops with the nose inches above the ground. He analyzed
the emergency situation, applied his knowledge and saved the day..!

aviator.
