flew down with a friend to watch the southern fried slide since my car couldnt make it to compete :( . a few miata's showed up

 

pink miata

 

oh look, a 172

 

As seen on TV??? Pick miata

Nice TURBO!!!! Shirt.

Thats awesome you can just hop in a plane and go there!

Any more NON pink miata pics?

 

Is that Rob from Rspeeds miata, i noticed the decal and I could also be wrong on the name.

 

not just pink but its even got hello kitty door panels and thats just the beginning. ******* hillarious didnt get to talk to him, we wanted to head out by a certain time to not get hit by the storm.

dont be knockin the cessna phil haha not the smoothest ride but its good on gas haha they are pretty much the miata of the sky eh? bandwagon cough cough

 

come up here where the rocks are a little higher and see how well it works taking off a 5800 MSL runway on an 85 degree day.

 

he was talking to me about that, pretty crazy ****

 

Pink Miata is owned by Jon Martin, a good friend of mine. He hasn't updated his site in a while due to work constrains and his wife and he buying a new house.

sweet thx

 

jesus christ he's VFR and he STILL can't fly the LOC :gay:

 

what the hell does that mean?

 

that round thing with a vertical line by his right shoulder is the instrument approach he has dialed in, I can't tell if he has an ILS or just the localizer, he's of the LOC 2 dots and if the ILS is dialed in he's WAY off glideslope, sad since he's in the clear.

 

Oh i get it without correction he will miss the strip on that apraoch silly airplane people i wish i had enough money for one of those.

 

A 172 is more like the Chevy Cavalier of the sky. The Citabria is more like a Miata.

Phil, the GS appears to be dead center.

 

no, the extra is like the miata.

I can't tell if he's spot on GS or if he's way off, judging from the angle more than likely he just has the LOC dialed in.

That's a tricky runway to land on, look at the 10' drop just before it.

 

Ther's a red flag on the right, could mean that the GS is off. I don't have my instrument ticket and don't fly any approches with a glide slope. In fact the planes I fly most don't even have one.

You should try landing at Merrit Island, FL The first 1000' of the runway stick out into the Indian River. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Coi.jpg

 

billings MT is worse, the approach end is on the top of a bluff, about 1/8th mi from the end of the runway is a 200' cliff.

he also has a TO flag so he could have the on field VOR dialed in.

 

wow we sure have some pilots on here. i was listening in on them and it sounded like they wanted him to circle around a min while they were doing somthing and then told him to land right after they said that so he started to land a little off. was a little wind at the time to so i unno how that effects things. hes got about 35 hours under his belt and has to get more so hes looking for excuses to get his *** up in the air. he gets hours, i save time and gas. its a win win, but philip has to knock his learning curve to the ground, hes not a pro yet

 

yikes, 35 hours.... I assume that's his instructor in the right seat then?
