I love that place, really nice people but is does get a little crazy sometimes which is a good thing. you might also want to check out shooters. They both have docks so it is really easy to get to on the boat. I do recommend both!

There have been threads on this and the general feeling is the F25 and F26 came with rudders that are too small and a larger rudder is a good idea , some F 32 owners feel the same way.

good morning my friend. i'm just waiting for maccabee to race down from upstairs so we can go for a walk.... it is now 0432. i think what i will do is take him out, then the two of us will sack out on the couch for a few hours. i have a full day but should be finished around 1300. i'll head to the boat, sack out in the salon to some battlestar galactica. my usual afternoon gig until i get motivated to finally solve this 12v light problem. i'm usually up at the crack of hell when i fly since it's easier in the long run on my body. morning departures are usually the best as the company always tries to get the 'originating fleet launch' out. less delays and the day goes much better as opposed to picking up trips mid morning or even in the afternoon especially during the stormy summer months.
ahhhh, maccabee's down now. talk at ya later....
