First of all, I hope BoilerWings is for Purdue. Went to Purdue for awhile...my wife graduated from there...as did most of her family...and I'm a huge Boilermaker fan.

Crash was a temporary nickname given to me for, shall we say, my initial inability to place the F100 on the ground in a horizontal manner. Thankfully landings are not graded...nor should they be! I was a bit more concerned flying the ILS than I was with what altitude I should flare at. 10 feet is apparently not adequate! Works for a 172, but not something that weighs 44 times a 172.
