Doesn't he have the sign out front still? Maybe he changed his mind, I haven't talked to him about it for a while.

I see the sign but I thought that was for some other property around the airport not the hangars. I should get my Dad to buy them, he is out there more than I am, would give him something to do. Hell I may look into it, more storage for me ![]()

No, it's the hangers. He wanted to build another row like the ones you're in but money is tight right now, so.....

I know nothing about planes - is that a new-ish plane made to look like an old one, or is it really an antique? Also, in a single engine propeller plane, if the engine conks out, is it easy to glide the plane down to a landing, if you can find a large field or something? Is that something an average pilot would be expected to be able to do? |

Every landing is pretty much an "engine conked out" situation, you should always have an area picked out to land should something happen, I can get it in some pretty tight areas, If I had to you could drop it in a football field

Cool, I'll have my eyes in the sky when I'm home visiting family next month. Mom lives in Caledonia at 100th st and the Thornapple river.
