My one tomato plant has started producing! The following photo is of the first two tomatoes to come off the plant. I’m eating them like apples and loving every juicy drop!!
Cycling
I’ve been sorely in need of exercise. Yes, I’m loosing weight. However; it seems that everyone in the know will tell you that a healthy body requires exercise. I could argue that my fingers dance across a keyboard all day long and that should be plenty of exercise… but we all know that isn’t true…. [Read More]
Utah Photos
I was looking thru my stash of photos of my recent trip to Idaho and the following stood out. I wish I was a better photographer and had better equipment, please forgive me for that and just focus on how gorgeous this terrain is! You can click on them for a larger version. The first… [Read More]
Tail Dragger I hate your guts
This is a little poem that has been making the rounds for a few years. I’m not sure who wrote it but I like it! Tail Dragger I hate your guts I have the license, ratings and such, but to make you go straight is driving me nuts. With hours of teaching and controls in… [Read More]
Faith?
Give the following article a read and then tell me who has more faith – an atheist/evolutionist or one the believes in God and intelligent design! http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2012/07/14/13-incredibly-lucky-earth-facts/ For someone to believe that all these things (plus millions/billions more) accidentally occurred in the exactly necessary way and time, they must have REAL faith. Sorry, it’s hogwash –… [Read More]

I departed for the Gila immediately after work. For July in New Mexico, it was a relatively cool day. However; that 92 degree OAT… [Read More]
Aircraft Trim
I was flying with a student pilot the other day. He says: “For some reason I can’t get on altitude – I keep chasing it around.” My response was: “Let go of the yoke.” Guess what happened? Ya, the aircraft nosed over and headed down. It was not in trim. The pilot was having to… [Read More]
Edifi Tablet
Now here is a kewl product!! It is called the edifi MultiMedia Tablet from Family Christian. It is an Android tablet with some great apps pre-loaded PLUS it’s locked down to prevent access to the garbage on the Internet. I suspect this might be a great gift for kids! Time will tell.
Fuel Indicator Calibration
My Vans RV-3B has a fifteen gallon fuel tank and Princeton capacitance fuel quantity sensor in each wing. These sensors are connected to a Grand Rapids EIS. As long as I’ve owned her, the fuel quantity indications have been wrong. The fuel flow gauge has done an excellent job as a backup but the quantity… [Read More]
Mars Photo
The following is a really cool photo recently released by NASA. The Rover “Opportunity” is still alive and well and took this panoramic image – I found it over on Space.com. It should also be noted, Opportunity has been working eight years now! Who says we can’t build anything in America anymore!?!?!
