End of an Era Looms ...
 

Flew the tweet at Willie, Randolph and ENJJPT. What a great little jet, just an MG sports car really.......even if it didn't go very far on cross countrys.

Just one more thing in life to make me fee old I guess.

Ferd

nothing like contact flights in tweets....... spinning the crap out of that baby....
spin left.....spin right.... inverted spins..... oh yeh........

For what it was designed to do...that aircraft is/was amazing! Taking student abuse for 50 years...tough! Nothing like cloud chasing in the Tweet, talk about turning a corner! No regets for any of my 1500 hours in that airframe.

I remember it like it was yesterday ( actually 23 years ) but I still remember Ed Cazalari my IP after a couple overheads telling the box we needed to FS to deplane a crew member and him climbing out giving me a thumbs up and holding up three fingers indicating me to do three around pattern.... starting that right engine.... Crap.... still might have been the best day of my life ever....Thanks ED... for the memories.

Idle neutral aft, spinning left needle left, rudder RIGHT! One...full...turn...BREAK THE CASE!

HANDGRIPS - RAISE
TRIGGERS - SQUEEZE

That's pretty much all I remember! Sure was a great airplane. Glad I flew it.

Four green, no red, no amber, line on line on line, point on point on point, squawkin, talkin, two good engines. Haha it took about the same amount time to type that, as it did for those engines to spool up! Loved that plane!

They better have a good class patch!

The 7,000lb dog whistle will soon retire. Dogs everywhere rejoice!

And a sad day in aviation it will be when it does!!!
