RE: I started my plane
 

I have been flying since 1982 and I still taxi around my yard! :) On the pavement though...

RE: I started my plane
 

My neighbor kids run a go-cart (illegally) up and down the street a lot. I was out taxing my plane in the yard and they wanted to race it down the street. I was tempted, till I realized I had no brakes. I'm not sure how fast an Extra-EZ 2 would go down the street, but I know it would be way too fast to keep it close and safe. Oh, and is a small chunk of (unused) ladies panty hose rubberbanded over the carb a decent filter? I got new ones (funny feeling buying them) just so I wouldn't get any hairs down the carb.. :) - Joe

Hairs ?,if they were new,how would you get a hair in the carb ? LOL ,and i just had to tell my wife about your post :D ,i'm still laughing.

Its bitter sweet here, with the spring comes WIND!:(

RE: I started my plane
 

Spring has finally sprung around here and most of the wind went with it cuz it's getting better everyday.

RE: I started my plane
 

There is an old saying here that March comes in like a lion and leaves like a lamb (as far as the wind). I hope there is some truth in that. Its April1! Its windy outside now though.

RE: I started my plane
 

I thought Texas and wind were Inseparable.

RE: I started my plane
 

Hey, don't knock Texas. We got about 1/2 inch of that white stuff today up here in Ohio.[:@] WHERE IS SPRING??? I hope it comes real soon.

Up north around Amarillo the wind blows harder than Chicago,out west somewhere they have windmill farms or is it ranches ?,but here it"s just about normal except it gets hot then hotter

RE: I started my plane
 

The wind mill farms are just east of San Francisco, CA. I know. Drove through that area enough times when I was stationed in Long Beach and my now ex :D:D was living in Livermore.

for most of you guys down south you probly dont think we get a spring or summer up her in south dakota! but its here too.... i wish i could only say i had a plane that i could taxi around the yard:eek: still waiting on parts, and fuel would help also.

racing a go cart with a plane... i should try that sometime!

RE: I started my plane
 

Sorry to tell you but i have seen them in west texas,seems there almost all over out that way.

RE: I started my plane
 

Wouldn't supprise me. I have seen just about everything everywhere I go, and that was alot while I was in the service.

EDIT:--- Would everyone quit talking about spring already!!! Right now they are calling for 1-3 inches of white stuff tonight and another 1-3 inches tomorrow. Last weather forcast I saw said we will be under a winter storm watch at 10:00 PM. I hope spring will show up here SOON!!!!!!
