While that is one nice garage I agree a 45 LP-B is missing. I won't consider one complete without one. Garage is tall enough to put that 25 on a lift and park a pickup under it.

We need more info Phil. How many FJ25s do you still have? Did you sell them and buy a second plane? This popping in once or twice a year just is cutting it.

 

[FJnotCJ]

I know, I know.

Real MG, I remember sitting in the back with the groceries....

What is a 45 LPB? An old Harley or something?

A long with a FJ45 and FJ25 wouldn't hurt to have a FJ40 too.

Well, the hangar situation is just about worked out, prep and paint of the floor was a heck of a task (latex). Flying fixed wing again and getting comfortable with instrument flying is a challenge after so many hours in a helo. Only the Piper is mine, a friend was visiting in his 206 and I couldn't resist the pic...

I still have all the rigs, any body want one? Seems selling is all the rage, diversification....Along those lines I plan on getting the Sprite mobile and out of the garage, only working stuff in the hangar. The White 25 suffered a fate similar to another 25 on the E coast resulting in a bad attitude on my part, I need to press on though...

Right now I am working fires and anticipate a busy season...will check in when I can

I can only dream, but if had the opportunity, an old J3 Cub, or a DHC2 Beaver would be on my list to fill hangar space.

There is a DHC2 float plane that lands regularly a few miles from me down river...love to hear that big radial as he comes in on his final, and even more so when he takes off again...what an awesome sight and sound

I remember that MG...

 

[FJnotCJ]

I'm not so picky yet. I would take Anything with an "NC" registration number...FJ25 of the sky

 

[FJnotCJ]

I remember that MG...

I remember you always got the front seat...I've got some freeze plugs here if you have a little spare time!

 

[Pighead]

I remember you always got the front seat...

Not always, I rode in that boot for years as an infant and toddler...

 

[FJnotCJ]

Still arguing....

 

[Pighead]

You got both front seats now..you win.

"NC"...that would be pre mid 1940s correct?

Since planes are the theme

My farther is working on a Yak12 and a Bordome fighter biplane... They just hung the wings on the yak this week... Pretty cool plane... A friend of his owned it that recently passed away... And a pair of Russians bought it... Go figure lol

And to go further ... I will be driving the Church bus down to JFK airport to drop off some nice folks to catch a plane to uwanda (spelling?) on a mission trip.... At least it's not 9 hr round trip to JFK and back in the cruiser lol
