Think about it. If Continental and Lycoming were to put those outstanding geared engines back into full production then they could be subject to suite from all you owners of those "brand X" engines for being deprived all these years!

BECAREFUL....Stay away from the ANT beds. For you "Yankees" the ant beds appear to be a mound of sand... Do tell...you will bog up and the plane will STOP. It happened to me last year.

It was an informative day in Scottsdale. I attended a great turbine session. Barry is mingling and filling in some blanks in Commander history. TCFG members Moe and Lynn Mill drove over. Bob and Sonny Murdock also made it. Wayne Brudiger is here as is John Bosch and Gary Kromer. I have signed up a couple of new members, a 690B, 500S and 680F(P). Hope all is well. jb
