How many of you...
« on: December 09, 2016, 11:17:18 PM »
...actually duck when a plane flies over you, or hunker down when you're getting shot at from behind?

I installed a metal plate to the back of my Henry Miller chair.

mutha, I can assure that you're not alone with that issue...

Plus: Raise my butt when I'm diving too low, lean on the side in tight curves etc... Should I fly on a daily basis, all this exercise would rehabilitate the six pack from my fridge to my tummy.

that's funny that you ask.  yesterday when the bishops won the war, I was heading to a furball.  I heard this plane and I almost ducked under the desk.  I actually turned my head and looked in back of me.  then I looked at the screen and found this 190 that has just passed right behind me.  it must have buzzed me really close. that's what you get for playing with surround sound.

you dont want me to ho, dont point your plane at me.

OH YES :O The pedals in my truck ARE NOT rudder. Use to have that problem after work a ways back. The Forward and Reverse selector were left of steering wheel on my Fork truck. The turn signal bar did absolutely nothing lol :bolt: Sat in the parking lot on several occasions wondering why i wasnt backing out  :headscratch: till the clicking of my left turn signal clicking got my attention :bhead

I used to notice this mostly when flying jumpers.  During the descent I'd find myself setting up for a bounce on traffic below me.

Approach: 81Z you have traffic 10 o'clock, 2 miles showing 3000

Me:  81Z is IN...er...traffic in sight

Was driving the other day I was thinking about flying in Aces High. Got real involved in my mind, when a car came up real fast behind me. Tried to do a split S and almost ended up in a pasture. This is true.
