This CC Milne Pocock guy is a real character.

What a nut job.....I like him...!!!

When I tried to view the linked video it asked for me to log in with a user ID and password. Those of us without a password to their site can't see it.

O-2

I'm betting character is putting it mildly (and politely)...

Think I'll stay far, far away from his part of the world.

I'm too antisocial to sign up for Facebook. Is there a link to the video on a freely accessible site? I googled the guy's name and found his website. I wouldn't mind reading his book, but I'm not just antisocial, I'm also a cheapskate, so someone will have to loan it to me someday.

I just about died laughing when I saw his pic!

I tried to find a totally open version of the movie trailer, but the website that's referenced isn't alive yet for some reason.

I'll fix it tonight. It's pretty entertaining.

He does look like a character. Now if he only had a square tail on that 1960 to go with the johnson bar flaps and a 0360, it could really perform.....lol. Looks like a totally stock airframe bird with the 0300 in it. Not even a stol kit on it....interesting.

He also appears to be missing a big gold chain.

Looks like a Halloween picture of Rod Stewart in a flight suit . I especially like the epaulets and the enormous silver wings. I'm guessing that Cessna's lawyers cringe when they see him wearing their logo on his left sleeve.

He's a member here, most likely a one-timer plugging his book.

Updated video for non-Facebookers.

That's why I don't post a pic of my own ruggedly handsome mug on here. You Yahoos would be jealous, and poke fun at me in a feeble attempt to boost your own egos!

Oh. That's not you next to the green Cessna?

I would never stand next to a green Cessna.... Not in a million years.

I was going to ask why you shave your chest. But I guess now that the confusion is cleared up, I won't have to.

Am I the only one to notice the amazing similarities between the activities, aircraft, and general fit and finish of this outfit, and those of some of our own American desert dwellers?

I don't much care what he looks like, most of his fun looks like fun to me

Thanks for posting the video, Z!

Hopefully we're laughing with him, and not at him, but no matter because the clothes don't make the man. He's definitely having some fun!

Was that a plastic gas can....?

The guy looks like a hoot. The girl in the trailer video is aerobatic competitor Melissa Pemberton, who went to Africa to fly with him. Supposedly they blew up the engine in the 172 straight away and landed it on a road.

Zane, Zane, Zane, Zane! Sigh.... You've been stalking this chick relentlessly on facebook, and now we must all pay the price of a crazed African Mafia Tarzan breathing down our necks. When are you going to start thinking of the misery your actions cause to all of us decent church-going folk? Did you even know she used to be a guy that played men's soccer in college?
