Obie, I fly the Citation V and the Citation Bravo, mostly the V. We also operate Gulfstream and Global Express aircraft...looking forward to getting a Global type rating!
Yep, nearly 10 years since you gave me that 8 hour CFI oral exam followed by a flight check out of MCO :) Time really does fly!!
Thanks. :) I consider myself very lucky to have Pitts as my last name! My goal in aviation is to fly airshows, so hopefully soon there will be an Alice Pitts flying her Pitts in airshows! :D
Thank you Obie, I appreciate you accepting my invitation on HangarChat. Adam Miller referred me to you and I'm glad he did. I'll be checking your website out next at faaproductionstudios.com.
Obie - just added more photos to Space Shuttle on Facebook. Now scanning old slides of Hughes flying boat. I saw it fly and will do an album on it shortly. Have plans to put a lot of stuff out since am writing my biography for the family. Also saw first flight of Northrop XB-35 Flying Wing out of Northrop Field. There is much stuff in my files that I will sort through, including some stuff from NASA Ames when I was around the RSRA helicopter and the XV-15 in the early days.
