I didn't have anything better to do this Monday so after 43 years I totaled our plane. Time to get out.

In before I don’t know what

[ConservativeMind]

How did you do it? With a hammer, or a violent crash?

Are you okay?

[Steely Tom]

I hope you didn’t go with the Trevor Jacob flight plan.

[yesthatjallen]

That’s it? That’s all you’re going to write in this vanity?

[rlmorel]

LOL. This could be a classic. One never knows...:)

[Chgogal]

Say what? Glad you're physically well enough to post your exploit.

[Yossarian]

Picts and an FAA accident investigation report, or it didn’t happen!

[ansel12]

It is an FR tradition, at a certain point we each total our private aircraft.

[CatOwner]

Remote control?

[Red Badger]

Pics?..................

[Big Red Badger]

You’re supposed to Ask ;

“Did You Die?”

[Red Badger]

So, should I take your name off the AVIATION Ping List?...............😆

[Bullish]

Oh, in that case this is an important occasion.

[Chgogal]

I didn’t think of that. Well done!

The plane? The plane?
The plane of existence?
The rain, which stays mainly on the plain?

[dadfly]

what do they say? any ‘landing’ you walk away from is a good one.

I had an old boss that used to have a small plane. Then he had health problems and had to give it up. 20 years later he was well enough to fly again. He went down to get brought up to date with things.

“In 1963 the manual was an inch thick and there were three flights zones. They wanted me to go through two manuals, each about 4 inches thick. And dozens and dozens of flight zones.”

I’d give him a call in the evening some times. “Hold on, let me pause this. I’m redoing my trip from 1978 where I flew from Seattle to Astoria, then along the Columbia River up to.... Except this time I flew UNDER the Astoria bridge!” (Microsoft Flight)

He really did get a kick out of that, he had an amazing memory. Hopefully you’ll get back on the horse again.

Did anything happen to your other woodworking tools?

I look on Youtube and see people flying RC planes that look big enough to carry humans. Particularly huge Airbus A380 scale models that weigh 800 lbs (full-size real-world plane has a maximum takeoff weight of 1.1 million lbs).
