| Oh,
Beech GB-2,Beech C-45, PT-17, Douglas C-47, NAA T-6, B-25, T-28, "someone's Mustang", and the backseat of a dual control Centaurus Sea Fury.
Does a Short SD-3 count? Also transports that might count, but... L-1011,B-727, B-757/767, DC-9, oh and the Bushmaster 2000 tri-motor. I think it was also a YC- something.

| Sounds like you have some good stories to tell us.
By the way, is it true the B25 has the noisiest cockpit of all the warbirds?

| The ones with the inward facing separate exhausts are the noisiest airplanes I have ever flown. I always wanted to fly one that was an executive conversion, N201L that had collectors that exited outboard only.
Second noisiest is a 727 at.9 mach.

Country:  | Yes, the B-727 is a noisy sun of a gun. A other plane that is also noisy is a B-737 the ones with the long engines, the old ones those that were one of the first.

Had a friend's father tell me a guy can do about 15 years of hard drinking then it starts catching up with ya'.
So just when you're getting good, retirement looms....damn! | |
