04-17-2008Well, my stepson just completed C1 Truck Driver Training! Everything was going well until his had to park (parallel) the rig! Unfortunately, he failed the first time but passed today. He is now getting his Driver's License, etc. and coming back home. USA Trucking and Star Transport offered him a poistion. He plans on going with Star Transport if he passes the background.
Just had to brag!

Glad I pay attention to your posts. :lol: Or I might have missed it. This is Cessna 172 Sierra Kilo, my husband's first solo, I am the one on the ground, but Piloting is definetly something I would consider over trucking. My middle son's birthday was the 4th, this month, so Husband and instructor(this 23year old kid) decide a two hour flight of the area, and did a -G push.
Hopefully you know what that is, My son will probably never forget, it involves my husbands keys weightless in the cockpit and the testing of your seat belts. My son wants to be a military pilot and already has logged flight hours. He did well no vomitting. :wink:
Thanks for asking
Your turn.

Although I enjoyed them, I seldom did it with passengers aboard. My 1st plane was an old 1957 Piper TriPacer PA22-150, (known by some airplane drivers as the "Tri-Crapper". It was nicely restored, but it's not the ideal bird for such things; besides, I REALLY didn't want anyone tossing their cookies in my bird.
There are many pilots who look down their snobbish noses at the old flying milk stools, but hey!! It was MINE!! while they were hanger flying, and cavetching about the cost of flying, I was tooling around in my little bird burning only about 8.5 gallons of gasoline per hour. (The plane was STC'd for auto gas)
I did a few g-Pushes, stalls, and spins in my instructor's old Mooney Ranger, which was a 1957 wood wing. Now, I trusted him, as he was an excellent pilot, but the wood wings did bother me a bit. Anyway, as I guess you have surmized, I did survive!!
