Hi Bill & Brien,

I sorta like this guy and I think he has a pretty "real" view of the L-29.
If it sits like a pig, walks like a pig and squeals like a pig, then it's a
pig! But that's OK because it's an affordable pig to purchase and of course
any jet engine is basically a furnace that burns a lot of gas, but what the
hell, the general public has no idea that it's an oinker.
I'm pretty much enjoying his pokes and jests. The guy has had me laughing
my ass off. He sounds like he has personality and he obviously knows how to
make a stinging point. The guy sounds like a lawyer or realtor type to me...
He's calling a spade a spade, but isn't being a jerk about it. Nothing
wrong with a viewpoint that is a bit different.
In my line of work I've found that even the captain or first officer that
pisses ya off can have an insight that is a bit different from yours and that
insight turns out to be the one that keeps from bending the aircraft!
I'll fly with him....

Guys,

Dont respond to this idiot. He is what we call on the net a troll. He
does a little research so he can converse, then goes on topic specific
lists and trashes whatever the list members are into.

By responding you are feeding into him. This is exactly the reaction
he wants. His goal is to get a rise outof people. Just ignore him and
he will go away. We had a similar idiot on another list. These are
disturbed people more than likely kids who need attention. He doesnt
have an airplane, probably isnt old enough to fly.

But the worst thing you can do is respond to him.

I love my L-29. It's warbird, it's a jet and will out perform most piston powered planes that cost 3 times as much and when you show up at your fly-in to eat your $600 burger, it's usually the only warbird jet on the ramp!!! call it what you will, it don't bother me a bit. You guys are all funny getting all upset about what some jerk off says, don't even respond to him. Now lets talk our kingman flyin. sounds like we are going to have a great time!!

Scott, your right I should not be internet fighting with anyone, this is not
fith grade. The only point i was making is WE ALL know what the l29 will and
will not do. Like anything else If you dont like it Stay away, as I should
have done instead of responding. I guess your right, I love to fly my jet
and what others think of it will never change my fun factor.

Hmm the guy doesn't write like a troll or a kid. He's obviously educated
and skilled in writing and I actually have been most entertained by his
viewpoint.
That's just me though. I always enjoy the rebel, maybe cause I'm in a
profession that is so structured and uptight and quite often I fly with guys that
are wound way too tight.
Guess I'm the only one amused by him??? Besides he has brought the L-29
forum to life.

Anyhow back to fly in stuff

Here is the Kingman AZ info.

I spoke with Jill and Carl and they said they would be glad to offer any
help they can and they will be in town that weekend of March 25th.
They are Yak-52 folks, but they have jacks and tools etc., that would be
available.
The only times to avoid are when they have a big rodeo or a bikers
convention otherwise the hotels are very cheap.
Cafe on the Airport of Kingman
Hertz car rental on the field
Travel Lodge close to the field 928-757-1188
Days Inn also 928-753-7500
Budget Silver Queen 928-757-4315
Best Western Kings Inn & Suites 928-753-6101 (nicer)
They will get fuel details for me and I'll pass it on.
Nice resort to drive to at night for dinner is Hualapai Mountain Resort
928-757-3545.
Fly out for breakfast Seligman Airport (gotta check runway length)
Grand Canyon Caverns Airport ----day trip to go to caverns (gotta check
runway length)
Kingman Army Airfield Museum- Norm Burge 928-757-1892
Also, of course good low level flying all over that area and the Colorado
River.

I could make that weekend with my Communist Pig!

Scott

Bill,
Greg here from the list.. what model viper do you have in your L-29. I
found a 0 time factory overhauled Rolls Royce Viper 522 I can pick up for
$34 K. How hard is the mod to install it? Thanks

Greg

Also, Bill, could you give us details about your Viper engine
conversion? The 'Net says the Viper has been in production for over 50
years, albeit with many upgrades over time.

So we all agree to block out Steve Roberts.
Don't worry about making the fly-in from the East coast Steve, I think
several post ago we suggested that you try to NOT come to our fly-ins.
Thanks for doing so, regardless of the excuse. L-39s are available for
$125,000. I'll give $33,000 for your pork, it is the other white meat. Then
you can get a super fast, high altitude, long range L-39. Or do as I have
done, put a Viper in your L-29 and enjoy the ride. And out perform the L-39.
Even your fuel flow will go down.

Serious question, did you test fly it before you bought it? What were you
expecting and which part of turbines & fuel flow didn't you grasp? That fact
has never changed since the first turbines. So try to have a good time when
at the fly-in yard with your buddies, (I assume you don't alienate
everyone,) remember, a bad day at the airport is better than a good day at
work.

Bad markets are typical. Gas price up = ALL airplane prices go down.

I read your first post, you definetly were whinning and bitching. I'm
married with children, I definetly know what whinning and bitching sounds
like. If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck.....

MOVING ON....

Dear happy owners/pilots;

We pretty much figure this is a West Coast fly-in. There are a few in the
East that we can't afford to get to. We too want to fly and hang out. Of
course we welcome everybody that graves those days when they can fly even if
we can only afford a few times around the patch.

We need to contact Carl Hayes, learn where we sleep, how many $$ for fuel.
I will be happy to call him. Does anybody have his number?
Who's really serious about the weekend of the 25th? (week before Easter)
Show up Friday go home Sunday or when $$ runs out? (Friday afternoon!)

Well, its a great snowy day in Colorado! Normal 25 kt. wind, Skiings good,
I'm still vertical and breathing on my own. How bad can it be. Satrt saving
for gas!

2's IN!

Roger. We're showing up Friday afternoon.

2 guys called and asked if we could work on their FAST wing patch. So if
anyone else wants to do a FAST thing, let me know.
