Yeah Ross, to hear that four Rolls Royce Griffon engines firing up, must have been one hell of an experience. And boy, would I love to hear that. Last time I saw a Shackleton flyin', was nearly 20 years ago and the roar of those engines, oh I would give my left nut to hear that again. Hope you have ...

Looking very forward to the Part 62 LSA thing, and thank goodness we have a commisioner who can make firm and pretty quick decisions with GA in his veins... ^*^^ ^*^^ vhpy vhpy And how can one become a member of MISASA? Someone who knows can just enlight us, we mere uninformed poor pilots who don't ...

Hey Karl,
