Crap, now I have to buy Christmas presents!
It was looking like it last night! I've been flying freight for 5 years in all kinds of weather and last night was deffinitly up there as some of the nastiest! I had mechanical issues, (prompting a return to base, transloading 800 pounds of cargo myself and an aircraft swap), turbulence, icing, high winds, lots of snowfall, landing on a very snowy runway, and finnally de-icing (I was the de-icer) and taking off on a skating rink!I'm hoping tonight will be much more calm!
This photo wasn't taken yesterday but its the same type aircraft I was flying, and is one of our fleet. Flying medical specimens around Washington state.

If they don't have Model A's in heaven I don't want to go!!!
Harold was a "Christian" radio & tv talk show personality that supposedly knew when the last day was gonna be. The problem was he was wrong in his prediction. For those of us Christians that do believe all of our Bible, well we have always been told in Matthew 24:36 that no man knows the day or the hour, ....so it is kinda tough for someone who professes to be a Christian to accurately forecast the great "ending".
They finally figured out what it said
My friend in this hobby is a commercial airline pilot, and owns a single engine airplane, and a '29 Model A Tudor. And, oh by the way, he is listed by MAFCA as president of the Alaskan As.I think its cool that there are a bunch of plane nuts here too. Model A's and airplanes go together like ice cream and chocolate syrup...)
