regulator 0 #26 September 27, 2013 I watched the show. Interesting how they are in such a rush that they still have time to mount a gopro on the vertical stabilizer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oldwomanc6 60 #27 September 27, 2013 JohnnyMarko OOOOO MY GOOOODDDD! Is anyone else watching this shit and laughing their ass off??!?!?!?! This is the stupidest show ever. Yes, Laughing, laughing. I took notes during. The best part of the show was the DC-3 Oh, and the Ferrari on the Eastern Shore. If this had actually happened, we would have heard about it long ago. Maybe, they paid to shoot this instead of actually repoing it. lisa WSCR 594 FB 1023 CBDB 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theonlyski 8 #37 September 27, 2013 To a wuffo, that probably looked pretty believable. If the guy is going to do a low pull, "at 1900' " he shouldn't have put that in the show, BSR bust (granted at a non USPA DZ, but he checked in with his USPA card). Also shouldn't have had the camera guy pull afterwords. So, that altitude is BS. Land off and wait for them to start the search for you. They probably won't start by looking at the airplane. Just sayin... they know ya got out. The parts that I liked the most were: Firing up a twotter right in front of the hangar, without people coming outside to see what's going up/ask for a free jump. Taxi and takeoff on a dark airport at night, no headset and no obvious radio calls. (I know it's uncontrolled, but that still irks me). That DC3 was a beaut though! It's a very dramatized and fake show, but it is somewhat entertaining."I may be a dirty pirate hooker...but I'm not about to go stand on the corner." iluvtofly DPH -7, TDS 578, Muff 5153, SCR 14890 I'm an asshole, and I approve this message Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmytavino 16 #39 September 27, 2013 "gettin' ARRESTED,,is a piece of cake "!!! stayed up waay past my bedtime..the 4 way exit looked pretty good... Real or faked... scripted And edited,, or shot as is... These shows usually have Multiple camera guys hauling around these BIG Ass Cameras....NOT at ALL conspicuous.. Bill didn't bat an eye...just put 'em on a load... I liked the show with the Beaver on skis.. Got my scr out of a DeHav Beaver ( 1976)...which was just about as Rickety as THAT one... 500 Grand???? whoa...NOT until you can find someone to PAY that amount...As for the 3...it never seemed like they could fix 'em... as FAST in the past,,,,, as they could.... on this show.....thanks for the heads-Up , to watch it.....jmy scr scs nscr Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know of more than one Casa 212 that was "repo'd" this very way in the past couple years. I'm not saying it's illegal or unreasonable. I just don't like the idea of not announcing yourself when the aircraft is equipped to do so.

rwieder 0 #46 September 27, 2013 Quote According to the teaser....5 months behind. I'm pretty curious if the jump plane is the actual plane being repo'ed. Knowing how "reality" TV baits us.... I went to that DZ's web site, and all they have listed for air craft is a Cessna 182, no twotter. Something happened to it. I also noticed the green canvases over the walkways outside of manifest were torn and blowing in the wind. You can see the moneys not there. Fake, or no? Not sure.
