What tower is this?  Sounds like someplace I might want to apply to.

Hi Chris! 
It's Boise tower..  they've always been great to us and I have been flying out of here for 18+ years now, on and off....  they're always professional, courteous and helpful.....  it makes working out of here much nicer than it could be.   :D

Went up with another pilot to check out a new alternator he'd just had put on his STOL equipped Cherokee Six 300 (I was along to help watch the gauges--and for the heck of it).  We had a pretty good headwind and decided to see how slow we could go.  Got it down to 28 mph groundspeed according to the DME  ;)  I'm PRETTY sure a Twin Otter could have passed us  ::whistle::

The average pilot, despite the sometimes swaggering exterior, is very much capable of such feelings as love, affection, intimacy and caring. These feelings just don't involve anyone else.

LOL oh you've done it now, now Mary will put up a new form of air-racing  ::rofl::
Simple rules: Fixed altitude, starting side-by-side, landing (stalling) is immediate disqualification, last one to preset point wins :D Gentlemen start your engines, uhm, that probably won't do here, especially not since gentlemen usually let ladies go first  ::rofl::
