• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Down on the coral runway safely but not before taking the top off a sno-cone stand. The crew will have to hose off the strawberry syrup from the gear. (The stand had already closed for the day so no one was banged up).

Oops. I think Taco said he was going to pay for the damage...

Slotting over to Munda then.
 
Made it to Munda okay. Came in a little hot and had to employ a few "S" turns to bleed off some speed. Crew was getting a bit queasy.

Apparently we came in low over the rec area. Post flight inspection revealed a volleyball net caught on the pitot tube. (No one was playing at the time they tell us).


I will say this, the Superfort provides a wonderful view...

Into AGGE. Came in a little too low over the officers club observation deck and made them scatter. (Got a stern verbal warning but no one was bruised).

Thanks for the heads up. I'll make sure the SBD is parked well away from the runway.
 
Into MKO. Duenna shows it as MKN.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll make sure the SBD is parked well away from the runway.

Good thinking!

Finally had a long runway and hit too hard right before the tarmac started. Go figure.
