Are the aviation sub-blogs performing to expectations? I saw a link the other day that seemed to indicate they were doing pretty well as far as page views.

People should go back and read his brother Damien's tweets from the race. Funny stuff. Keep in mind he is a professional comedian.

Condolences to his family and friends. It takes a lot of passion to race historics, and while the racing is more on the gentle side, there is still risk. A quick look at the gentleman's car would suggest that a rollover would be trouble.

My thoughts as well.

Everyone complains about flying, but when someone offers free tickets it is a mob scene.

weight overcomes dollars/rubles in this case.

NP. I've done nearly 100 MPH in one of those (speedo straight down) in Montana back in my youth...and lived. They were not total crap.

Ah, you were there for the storm last Friday? It shut down the airport for 75 minutes and that hasn't happened in a long while. There was local flooding in streets and storm drains were backing up. It was a good one. Luckily, I was parked in a nearby parking deck on the 3rd floor. Some folks who were parked on…

I'm not superstitious, but I am respectful and I will try and keep an rue out.

thank you very much!

I'd go for the green one.

I hope you don't mind, but I would like to pick your brain a bit. I will be in Singapore from the evening of Friday 22 August through Tuesday 26 August.

Good notes. Interesting to hear about the new series. We are LeMons vets and have been thinking about something new.

You have a point and the joke was funny. I was trying to be funny too. I suppose the internet isn't the best place for dry humor.

Starscream was American. F-15 all the way.

Truth.

First flight of the prototype was almost 11 years ago. 11 years!

Yup, oddly this status is going to change in a week or so in a minor way. The upper tank on the radiator has cracked, known problem for cars of that age, and I am going to go for an aftermarket unit with a good reputation. Not a performance mod, but it take away from the "mint in box" status of the car.

I have the last stock, adult owned 2003 Evo left in existence. I'm waiting for the Smithsonian to ask for it for their collection.
