Why would the current operator of my old plane move her into a storm path? I hope the plan is to move her out of harm's way before the storm approaches. https://t.co/vLBQRl0tkd

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to help a fellow pilot out. Today, I got a very nice "Thank You" card with a generous starbucks gift card from William Wallace. Eight dollars for a mocha? I choose FREEDOOOOM!

4. I truly feel for the aviator and those who knew him. I had flown into KTTD in my Twin Cessna for a wedding and there was a Twin Cessna (and ground) loss the same day. Scared some friends and family. I feel bad for the worry I create.

1. When a loss of control on takeoff roll happens the only response is to cut power. It must be difficult to accept accraft damage, but trying to fly out usually makes things worse. Three hundred feet off of the RWY centerline surely requires thrust.
