Lets see what your flying

[irish seaplane]

Here is one of my airplanes - I love it....

[Bob Upanddown]

So did I when it was up for sale once. Someone has spent some money on it since then, lucky you.

[irish seaplane]

But why are you selling it ?

I must admit I have been very close to giving you a call about buying it

Pretty simple, I have a J3 Cub on floats I haven't flown in 18 months. I have a Reims FRA150L aerobat project to finish. I have a C210 there to fly any day I need it. I have a Piper Colt too. I have a Baron I'm selling that I can use for fuel if I want to and its pretty awesome. I'm buying a C172 next week. Its hard to get time to do everything! If you want to come see the twin send me a PM.

Can I marry you?

Ha ha I keep thinking my next aircraft will be a boat. Those guys seem to have the life. Seems entirely without regulation and a more sociable activity all in all. The fact my new house has a harbour with power & water means a Gin Palace on the river Shannon has never seemed more appealing.

[Taiser]

Meh, anybody can float a boat!!! Catch more girls with a boat I suspect than a gas smelling old airplane!

[rarelyathome]

Ah. How to convert 3 million into 1 million - buy a boat

..... or an aeroplane. Although not all are money sinks!

My sweet lady, G-DGEF, more affectionately known as Geoff. This lady has a story to tell and is perhaps one of the rarer Ka6CRs you will ever see (some German fellow made her into a bit-more-streamlined racing machine ).

I can see that, the car tyre on the starboard wing and the "trainer wheel" under the tail must do wonders for the glide ratio.

Adds weight, makes her go faster see

The few boats I have boarded smelled stronger and worse (diesel!) than the average spamcan. My own pride and joy is so draughty that any odours of fuel or perfume or whatever never last long - handy! But not tempting to classy ladies, I must admit.

I've seen such implements applied to gliders at my home field, too. They are however generally removed before actual flying starts. But then, of course, Belgians are universally famed for their superb handling of complex situations

I watched a Prefect glider at Dunstable carry out a circuit with a tyre on the tail plane. I never realised it was to improve the performance.
