A Bonding Love Tale Of Two Car Nuts by Flying CarmanEighteen-year-old Torino "Tori" Crystal, an extremely beautiful young lady, is feeling like her life has been completely destroyed. First, her parents were separately murdered three months ago and nobody has been caught and charged. Plus, she feels so isolated and alone since she's been made fun of pretty much her whole life for hanging out at her father's hot rod shop and not chasing boys. Mainly, however, it's due to the fact that her eyes are two different colors. However, as she's on the train from Queens, NY to Atlanta, GA, she meets twenty-two year-old Ted Carlton, a very handsome young man who owns his own auto detail and restoration business. However, the first time Ted sees Tori, it seems that her dead parents are trying to get them together. Plus, when Tori sees her new friend's farm, she suddenly remembers a dream she had of seeing this exact farm, and meant that the owner of it would help her. As their friendship slowly transforms, Tori's courage and self-confidence begin to slowly rebuild, but she keeps getting troubled by extremely disturbing nightmares. It's not until the end of the week that this young lady finally is told of her true heritage and how she must take her place and earn the title of 'Warrior Queen'.Flying Carman is fourth cousin twice removed of Clyde Cessna, founder of the Cessna Aircraft Company and his father, Carl Cessna, served in the U.S. Army Air Corps in World War II. His main hobbies are collecting diecast cars and planes, reading, watching movies, researching paranormal hauntings, and listening to Taylor Swift songs. He also supports his girlfriend Oksanka, an actress who immigrated to the United States from Russia, but whose family is from Russia and Ukraine. They both support the Ukrainians in their fight for independence. He currently lives in Taneytown, Maryland with his mom, Karen, and his two cars: Raye, a feisty 1949 Dodge Meadowbrook R/T, and Selina, a sassy 2010 Dodge Charger SXT.https://flyingcarmanbooks.com/ BOOK 1 BOOK 2 BOOK 3https://blueinkscribble.com/Trials of the Three Princesses   Book 2From Damsel in Distress to Warrior Princess   Book 3

https://www.paramotorarkansas.com/products/paramotor-calendar BIO Hi everyone, thanks for having me! My name is Bryant and I run Kangook America. I have been an avid aviation enthusiast since the very beginning! I began saving for my private pilot's license as soon as I could work and I was able to earn my pilot's license in 2004 a few months before graduating high school. After graduating, I went on to pursue a degree in engineering and graduated in 2008 after which I moved from West Virginia to Wichita Kansas to work for Cessna Aircraft Company. Somewhere around the 2016 timeframe I began to explore powered paragliding as a cheaper (per hour) means to fly. Presently I am still employed at Cessna Aircraft as a systems certification and simulation test engineer. I enjoy flying my Cessna 150 from our airpark community but my paramotor flying now overshadows my fixed wing flying! At this point I have more hours in a paramotor than fixed wing aircraft. With Kangook America my main focus is to support our dealers and the pilots that fly our paramotors. We are excited to offer one of the most expensive product lines on the market and we strive to maintain parts and spares to keep our guys up in the air! In addition to Kangook America, we also have a small school called Air Capital PPG and have just launched a website called ParaProps.com https://www.kangookamerica.com https://www.paraprops.com / https://www.aircapitalppg.com/ https://www.facebook.com/KangookAmerica https://www.youtube.com/@kangookamerica5231 ******************************************************************************************* Send a self addressed stamped envelope to: Run into the Sky 3820 Dave Ward Dr STE 1900 #111 Conway, AR 72034 And we will draw weekly on Monday during the show.

You’re lining up for takeoff on a cool, foggy morning. A recent frontal passage has left behind low ceilings, marginal visibility, and a thick cloud layer. If you were flying any other airplane, you probably would've canceled the flight. As an experienced pilot and airplane owner, you have confidence in yourself and your machine.Cleared for takeoff, you release the brakes and apply full power. The engines spool up quickly and evenly, pushing you ever-so-slightly into the seat. The throttles go all the way to the firewall without a second thought; no need to worry about over speeding or over-temping the engines thanks to the FADEC’s takeoff detent which automatically controls and monitors the engine’s output. With takeoff power set, acceleration is quite brisk. In just a few seconds, and only 3,000 feet of runway behind you, you reach rotation speed of 90 knots. Positive rate, gear up. At 400 feet, you bring the flaps up and bring the throttles into the climb power detent.In the blink of an eye, you’re in the clouds. It’s a fairly benign experience though thanks to the Mustang’s G1000 panel and GFC700 autopilot. Climbing out at 190 knots, you see climb rates close to 3,000 feet per minute. You could get even more with a slightly slower airspeed. In a matter of minutes, you’re through the thick cloud layer leaving you with blue skies and sunshine ahead. After a brief level off, you make it to your cruise altitude of FL350 in just 17 minutes. You could go higher, up to FL410, but today, the winds are more favorable at this altitude.With George doing the flying, you’re left to managing the airplane’s systems, supervising the automation, and talking to ATC. Handoffs come quickly with a cruise speed of 340kts true; that’s Mach 0.63, a pretty reasonable speed for a jet of this size, especially when you consider you’re burning about 85 gallons per hour.A typical flight for this airplane is about 500-700 nautical miles. A 600-mile flight would take you just shy of two hours with plenty of reserves. Useful load on the aircraft is 3,100 pounds, leaving you a full-fuel payload of about 700 pounds. That’s good for three average-size adults and their luggage. As with many general aviation airplanes, there’s always a tradeoff between payload and fuel.The top of descent comes quickly, and before you know it, it’s time to come down. Descents are easily managed thanks for the VNAV feature in the G1000 which can be set up for any arrival. In addition, the Mustang’s speed brakes can be deployed anytime to assist the airplane in getting down faster. The gear can be extended at a whopping 250 knots. With ADS-B, the Mustang can fly virtually any instrument approach with ease, including ILS and LPV. Thanks to the 3-axis GFC700 autopilot, the airplane can fly the approach down to minimums with a Vref approach speed of 90 knots, which is perfect whether you’re on an instrument approach or in the pattern.Touchdown is smooth and the airplane stops quickly. While there aren’t thrust reversers on the Mustang, the FADED keeps the engine idle RPM quite low, aiding in deceleration. Not to mention the speed brakes and big rig-powered wheel brakes. Landing performance is a generous 2,390 feet.That was a fun demo flight, but it’s time to make a decision. By now you're an experienced pilot and airplane owner. You've flown a lot of airplanes, and after years of flying pistons and a handful of turboprops, you’re ready for the speed, capability, and safety you can only get from a jet. But which one? There’s no one-size-fits-all solution; every airplane does some things well, and other things not-so-well.The Citation Mustang is a twin-engine, single-pilot certified, entry-level light jet built by Cessna Aircraft Company between 2006 and 2017. A total of 479 aircraft were produced with hundreds sold to owner/pilots. The Mustang boasts comfort, capability, performance, and efficiency while being a suitable next step for high-performance piston and turboprop owners. Equipped with the Garmin G1000 avionics package, you’ll feel right at home when sitting up front. And thanks to its fully automated FADEC-equipped powerplants, power management is as simple as it gets. Other features include club seating for up to five passengers, cruise speeds of 340 knots True, de-ice boots, speed brakes, dual-zone climate control, and a forward potty.While Mustang technically falls under the Very Light Jet category, thanks to its 8645-pound gross weight, Cessna simply refers to the Mustang as an entry-level jet. Certified under Part 23, Cessna has built the Mustang with the same safety standards as its larger aircraft with safety and redundancy in mind. However, unlike its bigger cousins, the Mustang was a clean-sheet design, leaving behind the more traditional looks of earlier Citation models such as the Citation I and even the later-model 525-series airplanes. The most noticeable differences can be seen thanks to its totally redesigned nose section, windscreen, and fuselage. The result is a stylish airplane with great ramp presence and a commanding look.At first glance, you may be surprised at just how large the Mustang is. If you're used to a cabin-class twin, a TBM, Meridian, or Eclipse Jet, you'll see a noticeable difference in size thanks to its thirteen and a half-foot T-tail and 43-foot wingspan. The Mustang sits tall on its wheels, too, but getting in and out is a breeze thanks to its 24-inch wide main cabin door and fold-down steps. If you're used to older Citation cabin doors, you'll be happy to find a completely redesigned cabin door handle. The new handle is more ergonomic and much easier to open than what you might be used to on legacy Citations. You’re welcomed into the cabin with a 2-step ladder that folds out from the doorway. Getting in and out is a breeze, even for older adults and young children. Once inside, you’ll probably notice a comfortably familiar automotive feel reminiscent of a high-end car. To the right, four leather seats in club configuration with automotive-style seatbelts and buckles.But the other end is where all the fun happens. A quick turn to the left and you’re in the cockpit. The first thing you’ll probably notice is the massive 15-inch multifunction display for the G1000 in perfect view of both pilots, complete with large, easy to reach hard keys and knobs. The second thing you’ll notice is a familiar flight control yoke setup rather than the bulky control columns found on larger aircraft. The yokes on this airplane are stylish, too.Each pilot gets a 12-inch Primary Flight Display and a simple, yet practical switch panel for controlling aircraft systems. Systems on this airplane are about as simple as it gets for an airplane of this caliber. Many are automated and require little attention from the pilot. The pressurization and anti-icing systems are computer-controlled from the G1000, automatically scheduling the wing and tail-mounted deice boots and holding the cabin altitude at 8,000’ in cruise—that’s an incredible 8.3psi!Other systems control switches are located below the primary and multi-function displays, all within easy reach from either side. A left-to-right flow pattern makes cockpit setup a breeze. On the left is your electrical controls, including battery and avionics, then over to engine controls such as ignition, boost pumps, and engine sync, then over to the environmental controls. Again, thanks to automation, many of these switches don’t even have to be turned on or off. Even fuel management is completely automatic. With the simple cockpit layout, you can go from cold cockpit to taxi out in less than 10 minutes.Engine start is also pretty easy. Simply turn on the 24-volt lead-acid battery, do a quick systems test, then push the left or right starter button. At 8-10% N2, introduce fuel by bringing the thrust lever out of cut-off and into the idle gate. From there, just monitor the parameters and let the FADEC do the rest. Even takeoff, climb, and cruise power is calculated automatically for you by the FADEC. Gone are the days of needing paper charts and tables to crunch power settings for ambient conditions. Simply bring the throttles to the desired detent and the FADEC does the rest.The hydraulic system on the Mustang more reminiscent of a Cessna 182 – only the brakes are hydraulically actuated through a master cylinder system found in most light singles. The speed brakes, landing gear, and flaps are actuated electrically through motors and power packs, again like a Cessna single. A backup nitrogen bottle will ensure the gear is down and locked in the event of a failure of the powerpack. The nitrogen also provides you with a means for braking should that system fail.Like many larger jets, the Mustang has a lot of redundancy, including an isolated and paralleled electrical system should you lose a generator. If you lose all electrical power, the back up battery will power essential avionics for 30 minutes. Fuel can be transferred from one wing tank to the other in the event of an engine failure.The cabin is comfortable, and fairly roomy considering the overall size of the airplane. Cabin volume is about 163 cubic feet. The cabin is also well insulated, dampening sound and keeping the noise level comfortable for normal conversation. The passenger compartment is basic, yet classy and comfortable. It can seat four passengers comfortably with a club-configuration. The two aft seats are a split bench with a shared armrest and cup holder. There is one fold-out table on each side and three windows as well as overhead reading lights. Thanks to the center drop aisle, the cabin has a height of just over 4.5 feet.Right now, there are 24 Citation Mustang aircraft for sale, ranging in price from $1.3-2.7M depending on condition and year. Perhaps the biggest variable in the sales price of the Mustang is engine time and whether the aircraft is on any maintenance programs. Unlike piston airplanes, the overhaul intervals on jet engines is mandatory, and without an engine maintenance program, the airplane’s value takes a hit anywhere between $200-500K. For the Pratt & Whitney PW615F engines installed on the Mustang, TBO is 3,500 hours, with a mid-time hot-section inspection required at 1,750 hours.In addition, airframe hours and scheduled inspections play a significant role in pricing. For instance, annual scheduled maintenance on the Mustang will cost about $17,000 a year. If the airplane hasn’t complied with yearly inspection requirement, expect a reduction in the sales price. Likewise, the airplane is due for several big inspections every 72 months, namely the Doc 11 and Doc 32. Between the two, these inspections will run about $15-20,000. Again, the sales price will reflect. You’ll need to consider AD and service bulletin compliance as well. Fortunately for the Mustang, there are really only two airworthiness directives to worry about, one for the brakes and the other for a fuel/oil heat exchanger on the engines. I’ve linked both in the show notes at AirplaneIntelPodcast.com.So if you see a Mustang on the market that looks underpriced, there’s probably a good reason for it and you should proceed with caution. Of course, I recommend enlisting the help of someone that specializes in jet-aircraft transactions to avoid some of the major pitfalls which we’ll hear more about shortly during our interview with Brad. I’m happy to discuss these issues with you, including maintenance and helping you research the market through our coaching program [LINK]In addition to maintenance, you’ll likely need to invest in a maintenance tracking software such as SierraTrack, Cescom, or CAMP. All of these software programs help you track scheduled maintenance and inspections as well as organize the maintenance records for the airplane. For more information on scheduled maintenance and inspections on jet aircraft, check out my recent AOPA article titled “The Maintenance Maze.” [LINKS] I’ve linked the article into the show notes.While the Mustang is an excellent contender, it’s not the only airplane in this class that many prospective owners consider. For instance, the TBM, Eclipse Jet, Phenom 100, and King Air 90 are all in relatively the same class of airplane. But each of these airplane does different things well. It all comes down to the mission the airplane will be flying most of the time. The TBM has almost identical performance to the Mustang, but is more suited for shorter trips, say 200-500 miles cruising in the mid-to-high twenties. The Eclipse Jet is a bit smaller and doesn’t have the same range or useful load; same is true with the Cirrus Vision Jet, which is also much slower. The King Air 90 is great for carrying a lot of people or cargo; it has excellent useful load and takeoff performance but is 100 knots slower than the Mustang. All factors to consider before making a purchase decision.
