Re: Old Sectional Charts
Interesting about the elevation change. What is the grade like there? Wondering if they took the elevation readings at different points on the airport over the years - maybe the terminal moved, etc. That's a big gap, certainly more than would be anticipated by any kind of natural variance.

Re: New Member in CT
Thanks Stan, I believe we've met. I organized the Waterbury (N41) fly-in last fall along with Greg Delp and you flew your 17 in (beautiful, but the way) along with another one if I remember right. Will definitely pop in some time to say hi.

Re: New Member in CT
Thanks Dave, What do you typically fly final at? Owner told me not to bother with the 40* flaps unless really necessary as he feels it provides an uncomfortable angel in final descent. Having flowing 172's with them, I know they do their job, but can forget about going around with them hanging out. ...

Re: New Member in CT
Sounds good Rich. I will reach out to you once I start flying it. Will be going up this weekend with the owner. Will probably do a couple more flights with him and/or another CFI Buddy with tailwheel time to build up a bit more time in type and with the tailwheel to get comfy. Looking forward to man...

Beautiful bird Dustin! I am in SW Connecticut - let me know when you are headed out to this part of the world (Long Island/NYC Metro included) and I can try to meet up with you if our schedules work out.

I will be flying N2481D (S/N 20633) owned by Christine Rusbarsky (not sure yet if she's a member, will discuss with her and her husband Derek Lagasse) this weekend when we meet up for my first flight. I've got about 350 hours total time, but only 13ish in tailwheel, which I just got endorsed for thi...
