No, it flew, we are flying! Thanks for asking. We're waiting for the paperwork but we actually did a few test flights (legally, by the way, in my state it is legal to fly unregistered on your own property, and we have a couple thousand acres out here). I can't wait to paint the tail number on her back again. EDIT -- by the way her old tail number got reassigned so we have applied for a new ''Special Airworthiness Certificate'' and all the restorations do not count as modifications or upgrades which is less complicated but still a hassle. We had a zoom call with the DAR and he said yeah, it's worth coming out to inspect it because it's ready.
Ha ha, yes, we are on roughly the same schedule again, how long has it been since that hey. Two decades? I noticed I see your posts more when I'm working nights. Nights is pretty tame, we just roll longer jobs, nights are mostly when the major overhauls happen. You know how it is. Shifts happen fast and my dinner is my lady's breakfast, so, it's fun and we still hang.
Thanks so much by the way for everything you do around here. Let's "go," as you say, lol.
Dude, I am so proud. I can't believe it. I obviously don't know anything about restoring aircraft. When I saw it it looked like it was too far gone but obviously, what, a couple thousand hours and you are good to go? That's great.
Give my best to the little lady. I hope to meet her one day. And you know what I'm going to say. That you are the luckiest guy in the world even if she just barely has a pulse HAHA
Ha ha. She mentioned it actually. Maybe she proposed to me first but it just sort of came up as kind of obvious that we should do it and she talked about it with me and I said, yeah, let me work something out. If I said let's go down to the JP she would do it. It's probably what will happen. We can't really afford a big wasteful wedding obviously. We won't have any family around because everyone is all around the state and all around the country but I put in for transfer for nights so that when I suddenly put a nice ring on her finger she will feel surprised and will always know how much I love her.
We're going in dry!!!
Thanks for the much needed laugh Cats. I am back working nights likely for a long time. Gotta get an engagement ring. Wooohooo
Hey man, Just saw this. W00T, we are in the same time zone again? I 100% did not see that coming
Wait, engagement ring? Is it a secret or did you pop the question and then decide okay, switch to nights... Either way, congratulations.
So I take it the plane isn't getting finished until you start a family? Haha good luck with that
There's a downvote troll among us. Someone's offended by large suppositories

EVERY SINGLE DAY don't you know it!! Thanks man
We're gonna want to hear the whole proposal story

She sounds like a keeper! I made the first move for the first kiss, and we're about to celebrate our 35th anniversary!
You are lovely! That's how you win a long-term boyfriend. If you get what I mean. Well done
