Hi John,

I bet you do miss your MK III, traveling in such beautiful country and not being
able to go up and fly is just not right !  Unfortunately, the past week has
been perfect flying weather in Miami, and I have been stuck up north for work
:(  The motorcycling/atv riding does sound like a lot of fun though !

Jay,

That part over the everglades was a risk, but the engine and plane have been flying
perfectly, so I could not resist, although I do not make a habit out of doing
that...  You are correct, not a road or anything for many miles.  If the
engine did quit, I would just put down the flaps, fly straight ahead, and wait
to go over on my back  [Shocked]   There have been quite a few cases where people
have flipped their kolbs on landing, and as far as I know they have walked
away from it, so I would take that over the chute.

Mike
