Kong (that's his name,
short for King Kong) was born in 1973...well maybe late 1972... Cessna really
doesn't know when but he seems mostly a 1973 bird. Now he's really a good bird
with no bad habits and puts up with stupid pilot tricks pretty well, better than
most, often grudgingly bailing the hapless guy in the left seat out of
predicaments that he shouldn't have gotten Kong into. Once, out on the
Iditarod Trail, when the winds were a'howling at Rohn; and the mission there had
to be done; and several approaches were missed; he whispered to the idiot at the
controls "why don't you try it into the wind?" Well it seems a bit odd, but it
worked out just fine; I'm pretty sure I heard him; maybe you would have too? |
