Congrats man!! No worries on how young you look, I soloed a week after my 16th b-day. Even now, at 31, I still get comments..."Are you old enough to fly this thing?". The response I think, but never say, is along the lines of "I don't know...get in and let's both find out."

Hey X-Rated...

... this pic looks real familiar... is that Eagle County Regional (Vail?). Been 5 years or so... not sure if it's it or not.

I got to do some flying around Mt. Rainier and St. Helens last week. We were a lot lower though

Finally got around to downloading some pics from the day I took my checkride in the T-bird. Thought some of you might like to see 'em.

Hey Overtemp,

That shot of X-rated is the infamous approach into Aspen, CO. Looks alot better in the photo than the last time I was there! Not a great place to be in low weather or hot conditions! Jim

Aspen sucks.
I am thankful we dont go there with my job now.

My last job we would take a G4 in there and would only do it when the weather ws VFR.
Still sucked.

Im like some of the rest and not a full scaler, but do have some pics to share.

Mark Leseberg flew into Lexington,Ky. in Jan. of 2006 and we went and met him and he came and stayed the night with us, got a few pics of the aircraft that he fly's, its a Piaggio P180 Avanti its a bit different looking, really kind of neat, I think he called it a catfish on steroids. I dont think that Mark would mind that I share these. Mark, thanks for working with Bren on the flight sim, he really had a great time. Hope to get to see you again sometime soon.

Wayne,

At least the G-4 climbs like a bat out of H*LL. We, like you don't come out of there unless we have VFR good enough to allow us to escape via " the valley" headed north. We're pretty weight restricted on everything but a cool/cold dayin the Falcon 20-F 5BR. Your flying the 'Bad Boy" of the corporate world. Can't weight to land my tail in a Gulfstream one day..

Mark,

Very Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great to see other pilots(you) sharing a little time/aviation with the upcoming generation of pilots. We all had our mentors(the "old" hands) that give us the chance in the front seats. The fact that you're sharing that, shows that you truely love avation and what you do for a living. Way to Go!!


Jim
