dterrick 0 #40 October 27, 2003 Older school... Our C-182 is THE original, a 1956 model. OK so maybe the Beech could be older but I betcha it's bigger and faster anyway The plane came from Quebec a few months before that picture was taken. For those reading the French script on the artwork, our local pronounciation was christened "Parachute-is-me" Since purchase, XKU has been a typical jumpship. The first fall it was grounded at the final 100 hour for top end engine work. The next season it had electrical issues and an engine fire during a cold weather start (flooded the air intake). The pilot tells me that 'most of the instruments work most of the time' (shhhh...) and on any given day the door decides to latch either on low or high altitude passes but almost never on both . Trade her for a newer more reliable model? Never. I might want to FLY and land a reliable plane Dave PS: Those 3 layer racing overalls are really bulky and I wore them in part because they were warm (it was cold that October) and because they were warm. I was also a fashion victim at the time. Imagine! ..an orange helmet with a Red jumpsuit - what was I thinking?

nitecap 0 #42 October 27, 2003 This was really cool in the late sixties.Note Snohomish door and position of JM.State of the art gear too.I made 400+ jumps out of this aircraft and flew it for 500 hours with jumpers. The quality of the photo is not the best. I had to reduce it to upload. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #43 October 27, 2003 Hehehe, saw pics of the Polka Porter when it was in Waller...I always thought it looked like it had a prop-strike with a clown.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

McDuck 0 #46 October 27, 2003 Hey, not trying to jack this thread, but I wanted to know when the big boogie is supposed to happen down there in the Islands. I'm torn between that one and the one in Thailand, and I'm fairly certain I can't afford both.
