I am not sure why this thread is in the Fishing and Hunting forum, but if you go to the Private Aircraft Travel forum here and see a few posts by me
there, I have put aerial (satellite) airport images up as well as some pages from Arnold Senterfitt's book and Galen Hanselman's book.
We call that a " technical glitch" in the airplane biz.
And I shall begin my flight planning.in the airchives.
"All Hand's! Stand by on deck."
Prepare the Ready 1 for imminent launch!
I am going to build such a "hotrod" for this...
Cause there ain't no replacement for displacement...
But I'll start by flying my Baja "rent a wreck" soon as the Doc green lights me.
She may be ugly but she sure can... fly😉

doesn't have a current licence, so that rules out his "delivery service" he was spouting about. In the meantime , he still does not even have a
valid passport - so that creates a few issues for flying in Baja - No?
yeah, he doesn't have one of those either. Most pilots I know refer to em as licences, but what do they know?
And BTW David, if hes flying as part of you producing some commercially available book, he actually does need a licence, and not recreational or
private, he would need to be commercial, and of course I mean certificate, not licence!
And it's all donation to the "Church of the Flying Burro". No profits made in the fictious book deal.
All the names have been changed (and are fake!)... to protect everyone from nosey bitter Adam Henrys.

This is one of those moments.
As I was looking out of the hospital tower I could litterally see my whole life before me.
I had spent almost my entire adult life on the oceanfront in Newport Beach.
Was married to a nice lady, had a beautiful baby boy in that same hospital I was standing. A finely grown man now.
Years of training for and enjoying various sports. Enjoying the surf, diving, fishing...
Parties, friends, more parties... mysteries, adventures, misadventures... parties...
25 plus years up and down the 405 to Long Beach grinding out a living.
Infact, just saw a job ad for Gulfstream Jets at Long Beach, for an Airworthiness Inspector... for me... there if I want it. Restored to my glory
again. Gulfsteam G650's. Finiest and newest private jet ever built. Richey riches for sure. Rarified Air to be certain. Elite doesn't come close...
and airworthiness inspectors "hand" the plane to the pilots... every flight. And the "Delivery flight" too and meet THE CUSTOMER. Godlike figures...
might need pilots too.
Guess I could use some of my Boeing stock for flight training and buy myself a jet rating at Flight Safety right at Long Beach.
Entering the rat race everyday... and winning.
But I've already won. Why race on so? Win what? I guess more money is always better than less money... isn't it?
But...
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

I will now use my next 6 months getting ultra healthy and fit. And when my lease is up here I going "home" to Baja.
My new job...? Flying all around Baja in my little plane delivering donated medical supplies, school supplies, fishing supplies etc. where ever they
are needed and wanted. I can meet you at the nearest runway.
That would be the best pilot job I could ever get. And one I think I CAN get too...
The boss is a good friend of mine
Thanks all

You should go back to work. Just take lots of vacation.
Get a nice place near Loreto or La Paz. Baja Sur is way better than Norte. Get a boat and get out on the ocean.
