		<title>Complexity Achieved</title>
		<description><![CDATA[And there was much rejoicing. After spending a couple of hours over a couple of flight flying a C-177RG  is circles (they call it…The Pattern…) and making the wheel upie-downie things go up and down sever times. I have been given my Complex Aircraft Endorsement. Which, in combination with my High performance (wink win…never mind) [...]]]></description>

		<title>Added Complexity.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A Complex aircraft endorsement is a note in your log book that tells the FAA that an instructor has evaluated your skills in a complex aircraft, and found that you are at least competent enough to understand how to operate them safely and consistently. In order to be called a complex aircraft, it must contain [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Never Run Out of Gas. This is Rule One. Imagine, if you will, that you are in an airplane ten thousand feet in the sky, the wind whistling against the airframe, the engine droning its song of thrust while the prop pulls you through the air. Now imagine running out of gas, the prop stops [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Year Ahead</title>

		<title>Making plans for planning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So my plan it to get current again prior to winging my way to Airventure this summer in a borrowed Cessna 182, or maybe a borrowed 210, or maybe a borrowed something else. Actually, it will most likely be my compatriot Scott who will be doing the borrowing with me quietly hanging out in a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why Fly?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hiya folks! 2010 planning is underway with me feverishly collecting airshow dates and making my mind up about conflicts. McChord is having their expo again this year, and I’ve always thought I should go to Abbotsford for their show. We’ll see what happens once I get everything on the calendar. In Other news, I’m happy [...]]]></description>

		<title>My 2009 retrospective.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I took more shots in past years, but I think I took some of my best shots this year. Not only did I get 3 (count’em…3) air to air shoots in, I also got to go flying in a Swift, something I’ve always wanted to do. My goal for next year is to do an [...]]]></description>

		<title>Swift Flying</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have mentioned previously that I am a fan of the Globe/Temco Swift. I think it is a classic airplane with great looks and performance. I was recently offered my first ride in a swift and it really exceeded all my expectations. Swift GC-1B, N3783K, owned by Nate Andrews is a fantastic example of the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Concrete</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Let’s start off by saying the Concrete is actual a place, in addition to being something you make roads (and runways) out of. This particular place called Concrete resides along highway 20 in Washington State and is home to the Skagit Aero Education Museum who, not by chance, host the annual vintage aircraft fly-in at [...]]]></description>
