A simple pic of said persons Pilot Log is all anyone needs, once yur sure he's not showing you someone elses.

It is a law in the US as well, to always have ur P.L. on every flight, and that it be kept up to date, isn't it?

Now you could be not logging due to lack of qualifications, (which is illegal), but if it's just for a joy ride or two I can understand, but I think it'd be hard to get away with 500 hrs flying unqualified in and outta a busy strip.

I also think insurance would be rather difficult for an unqualified pilot to be left seating anyones plane.

And if it's true, I want a ride, and if it's not true, well he should take a ride....to the 'Get a Life Store' and cash in his blowup doll.

I once had a friend with the same disability. It was a real shame too. My friend... Lets call him John, was a great guy. No doubt about that. He was a lot of fun, and had a great sense of humor. But he would tell these outlandish stories. Not anything too over the top, but just little things. Interestingly enough, he claimed his father was an Airforce Col., while his Girlfriend's dad was an Air Force Gen. He had all kinds of stories about his life back in South Dakota before he joined the Navy, he was a top notch tennis player, a great snowboarder, ect. And he always had these detailed stories that helped make his claims seem legitimate.

Anyhow, one day we finally got a chance to meet his girlfriend. She turned out to be one of the few things he didn't make up. John had to work a charity booth for the 4th of July weekend, so Myself, John's roomate, and John's Fiance (they were married soon after as I recall) were walking back to the parking lot after visiting John, and musing about how we should have gotten John to buy us some Beer (we were both 20, John was 21). His girlfriend was puzzeld. As it turns out, John was only 20, just like the rest of us. For some reason he felt compelled to lie about his age. ****, we had a 21st birthday party for the guy lol. Anyhow that night, while watching Fireworks, we learned all about John for the first time. None of his stories turned out to be true.

It just seemed so wierd, because, as I mentioned, he was a great guy. He didn't need all of those lies to make friends, he was a genuinely likeable charactor. In the end I felt sorry for him.

Yes my dad owns a P-51D and I have about 560 in it. It takes about $3400 an hour to fly w/ fuel, maintainance, insurance.

Straiga

After following the Straiga soap-opera string I have to admit this is a tough one for me to decide. The fellow could be a crusty, rich AF brat with poor social skills while communicating on the internet. The mention of his father being a retired General, no a Colonel, could be resolved, but would have to be explained.

Hope the situation can find resolution.

Regards.

Logical conclusion, is that Straiga is really Voss.

LOL. that crossed my mind as well.

Anyway, Straiga will solve this, either by staying silent, or NOT

The mighty L-4 Grasshopper.

ah now i can here with u

my father was a groundmechanic and as litle kid i used to see this plane from the inside.

Actualy my father was 1 of the few left to totaly overhaul this aircraft including the fabric spanning. Seems to be some craftmanship to do that.

Yesterday was one of the rare occasions I dared to embarras myself in my trusted P-51B.

Caught a lone guy in a P-51D who attempted to attack a VH by himself. I pinged him on a merge and he limped off with a fuel leak. Had to disengage because some of his friends were closing in and we were both low. Few minutes later I got the kill.

Not interesting in any way, only the name if this guy : 'Straigaa ' (with an extra 'a'). Same person?

We'll I think the good news in all of this, is that we will not have to endure anymore negative crap on the boards from Straiga and another FOS poser has been uncovered.

I ~~the guys who have pressed this and am glad to see that this community has a higher standard and is not afraid to call a fake out when one is found.~~
