no favourites but would like to fly the shorts skyvan

cloudrunner · Post by **cloudrunner** » Wed Feb 23, 2005 4:55 pm

DHC-2... and what could be better than 1 PW-R985... well 2 of course...

I'm sure the Be-18 on floats is equally as satisfying.

Loved the Beech 18 on wheels, it's a pleasure to fly.

...but not to drive...

I'd like any warbird with at list a 1000hp sitting in the nose or in each wings.

Well looks like there are two lists running, The "Have Flown" and the "Want to" lists. Here are mine:

Best ones I have flown:

3. Barron 55
2. C441
1. DHC-2

The ones I wanna fly:

3. Anything that will accelerate straight up.
2. A-10
1. P-51 mustang (with Bob Hover as my instructor!)

Had to limit it to three for each.. other wise I might aswell list the entire Jane's aircraft index...

Take care all

Flown Cessna 150/152, 172, 206, 207, 208
The Beech Baron, Duchess and the EMB110 Bandit

The ones I've loved the most would have to be the Baron and the Bandit...

I'd like to get my hands on the Mixmaster, the Dash 8, Lear 60, or a Citation X, and I think it would be cool to have my own Caravan on floats...

this is a fun little thread and shows everyone's varied interest, however as Doc has already stated, this is not a "look what i have flown" but a select few faves and a wish or two...some guys and gals would have a list a mile long...if you want write a story, give that 150's "your position" thread a gander...and maybe give 'em a break...

I forgot Catalina on my wish list. how could i forget!
