TSA – Goodbye Theater; Hello Sexual Assault

November 16, 2010
Ah, the good old days; when TSA screening was just useless annoying theater.  Back in late 2007, Patrick Smith describes in a New York Times blog the sheer folly of the TSA screening farce.  Back then, I suggested you get a pilot’s license and avoid the hassle.

Now, TSA actions have escalated from useless theater to downright criminal.   Specifically, sexual assault.

It’s proven true once again:  Absolute Power Corrupts – Absolutely.

Great Formation Flying weekend!

November 6, 2010

Flying formation in Grumman aircraft is a great way to spend a weekend. Good company, good flying, and you really get to sharpen your stick and rudder (particularly rudder) skills. We had about 10 people and 9 aircraft there over Halloween weekend. All treats, no tricks!

Thanks to James Flynn for the photos of me in a two-ship element.

If your a Grumman Pilot in California or the neighboring states and interested in formation flying, do a search for “West Coast Hepcats” or get me your contact info and I’ll forward it to one of our leads for the next training event.
