Always, ALWAYS - do a preflight inspection. Chained planes don’t fly.

He got into the Cessna and started the engine, but he was stopped from going anywhere by a chain connecting the plane to the tarmac.

LOL! Next time do a preflight kiddo.

I guess he skipped the class on “walk arounds.”

Sounds like he needed some more lessons.

They never used the word tarmac in this country until Billy Carter peed on it.

Ya, I did that once. Didn’t check all the tie-downs and sure enough, the tail chain was still connected. Tried to taxi out and whump!

I wonder where he was going and who he thought he was going to outrun with that plane? Any decent sized motorcycle goes a lot faster than that plane does.

I don’t know of many good eateries in Compton, but there’s a Louisiana Fried Chicken eatery on Alondra that’s catty-corner from the airport. Much better than KFC.

If you are going to steal a plane, why steal a 152? Go for something bigger and faster.

Compton is America’s 100% African-American city.

And young Troy is now a member of the Earth-Towing Society.

Me thinks Troy may have been doing some pharmaceutical assisted *flying* before he got in the plane.
