    I have a brother 16 months younger than me. I can remember many times our mother would reach the limits of her patients and sternly say, "just go outside!".

    I was considering Ercoupe before I bought the KF. One of my daughters thought it would be cool to get my ticket in an airplane as old as me. The advantage of the KF is the folding wings. Hanger space is at a premium around me, unless I want to drive 50 miles. I can keep the KF in the garage and drag it 1 mile to the airport when the mood strikes.
     
    Some of the Ercoupes have rudder pedals...

    I still have my father's P38. It will pass to one of my daughters on my demise. Her husband is a Army lifer with 14 years in and about to head east for the 3rd time.

    I'm confused. I was on submarines not carriers (thank God).
    How can a nosewheel function as a tailhook? Trying to land with an excessive headwind? I've seen a couple videos of that happening.

    As a kid, I thought they were the coolest airplane. Of course that was based on looks. I liked the Beech "V" tails also.

    What is a practice landing?
    I think you either land or you don't!

    Yep, I pretty much figured all that out about a week after joining the forum. (I'm still sharp like that) At least it gives the thread a bump to keep it from dying.

    You didn't have any problem with the steel sucking up the heat or did you heat the roller as well?
    Nice looking result!
