rmsmith 1 #3 January 28, 2003 This is really unfortunate news! There are very few people who can really grasp the enormity of capital investment, hourly expense, and tort risk required to provide a turbine airplane to this fine sport. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jlmiracle 7 #4 January 28, 2003 Yeah, there was a gear actuator problem. He landed on 2 wheels. Plane should be up by the end of the week. No injuries. Not catastrophic. That's all I know.

cameramonkey 0 #8 February 3, 2003 Ouch. this isnt Mikey's year. He missed the Richmond boogie this past labor day. I heard it was because during the major overhaul/inspection thingie they were doing the monday before turned up a bent part, that couldnt be fabricated/replaced by Beech for like 2 weeks. I missed him Two wrongs don't make a right, however three lefts DO! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
