Its all relative...$1800 green was quite a large wad in them days when your earnings were $4500.
No problemo for you now Chuck go to Kisseemee when the blowy season is over

[Chimbu chuckles]

Hi Tinny...sure I can afford Kissimee (well when Chelsea finishes school next year anyway ) and will do it when time permits...but Junior Burchinal's place sounds like it was my kind of place.

Sounds a bit like a warbird Talair

In a hard wind it would take a tremendous amount of rudder to keep the nose straight on final, and even more during flare-out

Funny about that. Keeping the nose straight on final in a strong cross-wind? I hope this is not a wind up because its an entertaining bit of writing but on the other hand it sure is a weird way of allowing for drift.
