In the spirit of the upcoming High Sierra fly-in, I thought it might be nice to give a little love to the guy who had minimal time devoted to him in the short film, despite being such a character.

That was way too cool!
And the places that Mooney has been is even cooler!
Only thing I didn't see the bird strike!

Nice work Z!
Bryan with a "Y" is very much a part of the behind the scene at the HSF! He very much deserves this tribute!
Nice work!

Re: A tribute to Piperpainter
Hahaha nice work Zane. Bryan, I'll continue giving you shit for flying a low wing retractable gear nose dragger. But mostly its just because I'm jealous you cruise 50mph faster than me! At least you know how to fly it and take it places no one else has the balls to. I still make it a point to find places to land in the 170 that you can't though!

Heh heh...
Bryan is a good sport and a huge part of the BCP team. I figured he just needed his own spotlight...

When I saw the stuck in the mud part, I said oh shit (I'm sure Bryan said more than that!). I'm glad there was no damage, esp no prop strike.

Must be some tough gear on those birds. So how'd you get it out of there?
