Took the "BIG Leap" today..
« on: September 02, 2015, 10:23:03 PM »
No I am not talking about the leap off A bridge either .... I proposed marriage to my lovely girl friend...now my fiance' Michelle. We have set a date for Sept 24, 2016 for a wedding date and we are going to be doing a road trip in the next couple of weeks... We will be seing some friends in Oklahoma and Texas, with a stop off at the HTC HQ if they will allow it.

Thanks go to a fellow POTW and his lovely wife to accompany me and my fiance to Foge De Choe in Atlanta to witness this event in our lives.  :salute Dave "Bugs" Schuller..you are a friend beyond compare.

Ohh and I took a ride in a TA6 trainer for 30 minutes today... for got that happened too...

Will post pics as soon as I can get them transferred to my computer..

Taxiing out to take off..


In mid flight ... 45* up and 45 to the left....what a rush..

There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

The real problem is anyone should feel like they can come to this forum and make a wish without being treated in a derogatory manner.  The only discussion should be centered around whether it would work, or how it would work and so on always in a respectful manner.
