Just curious but what airport are you based at here in Georgia? As you can see from my location I'm up fairly close to Lee Gilmer in Gainesville.

Why did it go back to Chicago? Was it leased out? We should most definitely keep interesting aircraft in GA to balance out the abundance of business jets, 172s, and Delta.

It was leased for awhile because of a large volume of jumpers....Our resident Twotter had taken a group to a jump in south Ga.

All I have to say is sweet, I would love to get a ride in one of those.Also, on a side note: BMG50, that's a reference to a .50 BMG round isn't it?

Yeah,That was a real thrill!!!.....Steep descent out of 15,000ft and lots of G,s pulling out..Great!...Same on landing..saves fuel....And that is ,in fact,a reference to the .50BMG Heavy machine gun...I started using that "handle" years ago when I bought my M2HB FA gun....Seems I can,t reload those pics again because they,re not in the orginal post,so I,ll go and repost those and some more from the A/P today in the screenshot forum.....Lou
