LOL, OK I agree with you. Hopefully I'm not a numbskull or a pinhead, although I have two ex-wives that would strongly debate on that issue.

RE: FA-80 goes through 5 glow plugs in a row

Thanks everyone for your help. The puzzling thing is, this is an engine I bought new 12 years ago, it's always been reliable, always ran great.

RE: What if you crash and hit a parked airplane

You shouldn't be flying unless you cover all liability you may incur whether by insurance or out of pocket.

The answer is of course yes.

So now let's have a show of hands of those that...

I agree completely 804.

The trouble is, not everyone is as "gentlemanly" as I am, hence I'm heavily insured.

Keith, without revealing anything confidential, could you tell us who initiated the lawsuit? Was it the owner of the destroyed airplane or was it his insurance company?
