One thing worse than " 90%" completed is 100% completed, hangared, insured and full tank while watching Mr Johnson and NathanMoss fly and have fun in your our creation. Let's imagine a little scenario," supposeTeddy Kennedy had flown several hours in his youth and a little along the way then he decides to get his physical renewed so he can fly Bobbie III's 150 some weekend in Palm Beach. The Fed Drs say you will have to have the cardiologist perform all those tests plus a max stress test, the neuro Dr performall those MRara Is etc. Cost in excess of 13K. Teddy pleads that all he wants to flyis Ted Brousseau's Piet. No way says Mr Fed Dr. Question: How long after the final No from the Feds would it be before some action MIGHT develop on the Sport Pilot issue. Not that ole Corky is implying that politics COULD play a partin the passing of this loooooooong awaited priveledge. Sorry I got off the subject Max, what I really meant to say in this little note that you are mighty welcome to choggie east on I-20 and visit us anytime.You might check with Mr. Edwin Johnson, who likes fine Scotch, and try to arrange a little hop with him. He and Nathan Moss keep the keys. That's personalso I can't speak for him but he is a great guy.Corky in La waiting for those idiots in Washington to get off of it and pass the Sport Pilot issue while I can still walk to my plane even though it's now with a cane.________________________________________________________________________________
