Thats awesome! That plane is beautiful btw. I was thinking about training in a Piper. I just don't know which yet. Piper Warriors are rather cheap to train in here so probably that.

How hard was landing really? Thats probably my biggest worry is learning to land haha.


Haha... After the first few times landing it's pretty easy! For a traning plane, a Cessna 150 is also a pretty good (and fairly cheep) airplane to come by. I learned in a 1979 Varga Kachina, that airplane was a lot of fun!

Hey Guys!!!

I just drove on the absolutely most AMAZING road inside the U.S.!
It was a long Mountain pass on Hwy 18 heading out to Big Bear Lake..its called Rim of the World I think. But anyways it wasn't busy at all and the roads were really smooth! I think I might make a video out there with my next e30!

Anyways heres me looking off the edge




no pics of the road sorry :(
