Post by Harry Babb »

Just heard on the news that a guy from Georgia was jogging on the beach in Hilton Head, South Carolina when a single engine plane crashed into him killing him immediately.......

I heard that it might have been a home built plane that:

A. Spewed oil all over the windshield
B. Lost it's single prop

I'm guessing that legislation will follow shortly, which will require airplanes to be fitted with horns.......

Mike, the first thing I thought of was one of those old texas cadillacs with a set of long horns on the hood.

Mike,
Not before a lawyer will try and get the victims family to sue apple because no warning labels were on the package that said:

warning: use of ear plugs while jogging on the beach could result in injury or death from an airplane trying to make an emergency landing.

A kit plane, and one of the nicer ones. Timing is everything in life, huh?

Speaking of single engine planes, got a letter from TSL yesterday that the Panamanian domestic airline that flies the Twin Otters down to the lodge is junking them and going to all Cessna Caravan single engine turboprops...bring your own life jacket.....ought to make the Monkey Approach into runway 27 at Pinas even mo' fun.

And the same letter advises they now have wifi in the bar...what's the world coming to?
