Went up for a nice 1 hour flight this morning with a friend of mine.
Just doing some sightseeing. Went south about 5 miles to check out a
fire. Had just turned and started to head north. Since, with a
passenger in the front, there is no forward visibility,,,,, when
something on the right startled me. Thought it was a plane in that
first milisecond.
It was a goose! Startled the crap out of me. He was flying the same
heading and altitude as me, but just 30 feet to my right. That would
have been something to have run up his tail.
Since that wouldn't be a forceful strike, more like a Deli slicer,
would it have taken out my wooden Sensenich prop?? Hmmmm

and the guy sez I only need enough so I don't pee in my shoes!

As an ultralight pilot ,I get this thing all the time.I wouldn't fly in
that.Geeeeeze are you crazy man.Your going to kill yourself.Well I've
been flyin since 1983 and I ain't dead yet and I've had a hell of a lot
of fun and I know many people who say they would like to do this and
that and they still ain't done it and they are still just as miserable
as they were yesterday and they are going to be miserable tomorrow as
well until they try something that gets your blood movin at least a
little faster than sex.If I die tomorrow in a plane I've been building
then let them write on my tomb stone"he did what he wanted to do and had
a fantastic time doin it"!Remember this ;you are only someones memory
and when they are gone ,so are you.I want my great great great grandkids
to say"hey that old guy used to FLY." And FLY I DO!AND FLY I WILL IN MY
PIETENPOL!

As one of the Wright brothers said(can't remember which one)"If you want
to be safe,sit on the fence and watch the birds fly by!"For cryin out
loud.What is safe.Chances are you'll get killed going home from work in
a car before you ever die in a plane crash!

You must have a fast Piet. If this happened to me, I'd be more
concerned about the goose running up my tail than vice versa!

Am I missing some important worldwide event or something? What is the
deal with the cost of AN115 Shackles. I keep looking for a line
somewhere in ACS that says it is for 100 of them - $10+ dollars for one
of them?
Does anybody know a cheap place to get these? I know they are both cool
and unique, but those prices are insanity.

Kurt,
I went to a local ships chandler and bought some stainless steel bow
shackles. They were much cheaper and of better strength. Check out this UK
site for examples,
http://www.boatsnbits.co.uk/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Shackles_78.html
I drilled out the threaded part, closed up the gap a bit and used standard
clevis pins.
Cheers
Peter.
