Warbird Rides

[warbirdguy]

Who here is planning to buy a warbird ride this year?

In the sense that I'll be rejoining CWH for '09 in June and riding in something that day, yes; would depend though on what you class as a Warbird...last year for instance I rode in their DC-3, which was built in '39 as an airliner, so arguably not a Warbird.

I voted YES, every time we put fuel in the tank I am "Buying a ride"

Thanks for the giggle......I never thought about it that way.

I had already voted No.......as I tend to give them to others rather than buy one for myself. But in view of N3NJeff's theory I am buying....LOL

I did last year so most likely not. That is unless there's an A-26 coming to the Seattle area and selling rides. Then I may have to scrounge for some $$$.

Not likely this year.
Its more an "opportunity" situation...money is a secondary issue.
My schedule is alredy pretty ful during flying season, so won't likely be near any warbird rides when I have time to take them.

You are welcome!!! Tho the truith hurts just a little bit, doesent it? Its sad to see it that way. Like my dad says. Warbirds are the quickest way to turn money into noise! Tho we sure do have a good time at it!!

I voted NO because I hope to be flying (ie. working at keeping it in the air) every time I pay for fuel - not riding (passive).

Why fly between 4 radials when you can fly between 4 Merlins? Head up to Hamilton with 1500 spare bucks and you can give it a try

Roger that.... But its the angle of the dangle that you are paying for and also the look see when you are passing down Rwy 13 at KLNC....
