200 MPH and upside down on a scooter ride.
« on: June 26, 2022, 08:41:02 AM »
The last thing I expected when I headed out on my Yamaha Majesty yesterday morning was to end up going 200 MPH and being upside down.

But that's exactly what happened. :o

I know what you are thinking.  Pics or it didn't happen.

OK.  Here you go.

The flight brought back some memories for me too.  This was me in 1985.

Were you a pilot? I'm a private pilot and was an air traffic controller.

Took a ride in a flyin' 'chine with a REAL motor! The only thing about that T-28 is the "little wheel" was on the wrong end!
I know the signs. You took that ride and planted a seed. Next we know you gonna spend all your retirement on some darn ole plane! Or worse, throw in with a bunch a ole coots with a restored warbird wit two seats and spend the summer galavantin'  flying rides. Well, thats gotta be better than flyin' skydivers....
