Can also be compared to T-41D

We were at SunNFun last year, next to VOR at KLAL so all the other AC were to the south (pic is facing north) and the displays are to the west of us.

Very nice aircraft you got yourself there, I'm jealous. I've heard of the T-41's and FT. George Meade Aeroclub has a couple. Once I finish my training at quantico AC, I'll be heading over there just fly one

I've been eyeing a Maule, probably several years down the road though...

Shepherdstown West Virginia-

Historic Shepherdstown is the Oldest Town in West Virginia, Founded in 1762 by mostly German Settlers. I believe it was George Washington who wanted Shepherdstown to be our Nation's Capital before Washington DC was chosen.

Nestled along the Potomac River Historic Shepherdstown, is only a few miles from Antietem Battlefield in Maryland and Historic Harpers Ferry is to the South where the Shenendoah meets the Potomac.

I moved there in 1991 and lived there until 1999. It's home to Shepherd College, and Main Street (was German Street until WW1) is filled with Bars and knick knack shops.

I go back every couple months, and hang out with friends and such. And I plan on moving back there and working in Washington DC as soon as I can save up some cash and get my foot in the door somewhere.

Off of Cabo San Lucas on a boat with a fishing pole in my hand with either a marlin, tuna or Dorado on the other end. That would be followed up by taking my tuna steaks to a local resturant and having them sere it with a nice soy/wasabe sauce to dip it in while the sun is setting on the Gulf of California.

The last time I was down there fishing, I caught two nice yellow fin tuna. One was 40 lbs. and the other was 50 lbs. The guys cut me a little chunk off the carcass and I ate it raw. Now that's fresh tuna!

Hell Bob Soto couldnt even give away a charter to that Island in the olden days

shamus

ps: you are probably right bud, think the 'Big Island"

Bodhi · « **Reply #58 on:** January 27, 2004, 09:18:24 AM »

Yeah, Shamus, there are few on the island, but the diving is awesome, and the women were gorgeous every time I went.

Nothing like diving, partying, meeting hot chickie, going to deserted beach, getting down on said beach, having buddies interupt you by pouring some alcoholic beverage over the two of you engaged in said activity, being so lit, not caring and continuing, waking up to pictures of said activity being placed on your cars and windows for the next 6 years..... priceless!
