Cool pictures flysher! Here's a picture I took while up the Piper Cub the other day! Sorry it's sideways. These are a couple of small lakes over beautiful south central Oklahoma.
very nice i always wanted to fly a cub, I've been in a decathlon and a pitts, and then all the normal single engine trainers etc, but cub is high on my list.
Here is the one I flew. Wish it was mine. Sadly, it's a guy I work with. Also has a Cherokee that is fun to fly.

So...I've always been intrigued on what part of the aircraft's electronics are affected when someone leaves their phone on during takeoff? I know a Blackberry pulses all the time looking for a tower (as I can hear it on some electronics nearby), how about the others? Inquiring minds want to know.
One theory is that the mysterious heavy hitters that came in to teach Gus a lesson last event liked it here and stayed. Can someone in the Top Ten tell us (or post a screenshot) if we have unknown guests again with thousands of jobs to their names? Gus? Penguin? Faye? Cheers, M.
No part, if you ask me. Has it ever happened to you that your took your bag out of the overhead bin after arrival, to find out you left your phone on? (I have. You can always tell by the telco messages that say 'Welcome to Uzbekistan' or some other airspace you crossed.) So my guess is, on a flight with 300 pax on board there are always at least a handful, if not a dozen or so, that leave their phones on. Guys in the cockpit don't even notice. It's a SCAM (Serious Campaign to Annoy Merlion). I did read an article, however, that pointed out that an airliner with 300 working phones on board going 500 miles an hour can seriously mess up the mobile networks it passes through. Sounds more probable to me than the sensitive avionics story. So from that point of view it's aimed at protecting telco networks not aircraft electronics. Cheers, M.
Besides having fun...if you are level 40 or above: what is the best advice you can give to lower level players and newbies about this game? Make it a paragraph or a page!
Thanks, Robo! That explains 10,000 of the 22,000 difference, assuming for a moment that both come from NimbleWiki. (Double count as NW loses 5k and we win 5k.) That leaves 12,000 to explain. Part of that can be explained by TA1 traditionally doing a bit better in non-US events. But not all. Maybe other heavy hitters have defected from NW but haven't made the Top Ten yet? Alternative theories, anybody? Or can Vic the Spymaster file an interim status report? By the way, is Oamoam one of the two high placed unknowns in Christchurch? Cheers, M.
