Whats the coolest thing you've done at work?

I've been lucky to do a few cool things (ride alongs on ANG refueling flights, etc.) but this may have been one of my funnest moments...


What kind of cool stuff have you gotten to do on the job?

I came in late to DDC in an Archer II years ago. I had left earlier than I wanted to beat weather in, but the weather developed about 6 hours sooner than predicted. Called flight service on the radio and they assured me there was no ice around my destination.


Anyway, my friend Josh was with me right seat and tells me that ice is building on the wing.

Butt starts to pucker slowly. We are 10 miles from DDC and ATC is giving me vectors for the ILS 14. Ceilings are about 3-400 feet. Well, ice builds, and ATC tells me I am clear for the full ILS14 DDC. I reply "no, I am going to intercept direct ILS 14 inbound."

"there is no radar coverage Piper 9****".

"We are accumilating ice on the wings, I don't want to risk it and do the full."

He helped me as much as he could. Credit to him for not be a regs prick.

I caught the inbound course just as the GS came in, and I proceed to shoot a perfect ILS (I did notice a loss of airspeed had more nose up...), land, swing the plane into the open hanger with engine running. The lineman pulls a large chunk of ice off the wing and says,"holy shit notorious".

I reply,"I know. I prefer ice in my drinks instead of on my wings". I hop in my car and crank the stereo to come down from the rush. JFC my ass didn't unclamp for a week. Got to love faulty weather reports.

This was all done without GPS or autopilot. Your boy has skills back in the day.

Old man Buehler,Buehler _445 and I coming home from KC to Scott picked up ice on the south end of Hays on afternoon. Just as we crossed south of the runway about 5 miles the plane went from clean to iced in seconds. I told old man 180 heading xyz. Hit the mic and told atc vector to final Hays. He had a 4*4 inch clearin on The windshield from the defrost. Landed Hays just in time. Ended up staying a day or two there iced in.

I have had two engine failures, and ATC above ABQ flew me directly into an imbedded thunderstorm.



Ice is scarier than all of them. It is an intense ride to death with a running countdown. I hate that feeling of shining a flashlight on the wings looking for ice. Ugh.

So, two disasters within days while you directly avoided the third.

I think that's right. I think it was Chiefs in the FBO (**** Squirmin Herman Mother****ing Sack of **** Edwards) and then Hawks Monday.

Have you ever flown power line, Run? That is a lot of fun.

I used to do it for the local company every year. They check insulators and the poles. I covered the entire NW part of Kansas from Goodland all the way to Salina and down to around Dodge one year.

Nothing like flying 25-40' off the ground for hours at a time.

I flew pipeline in Oklahoma back in 09. It was great until it was 100+ outside. Then it was like riding a paint shaker at Walmart with blow dryer in your face.

But had a blast chasing coyotes. Buzzing homes, farmers in tractors or their daughters in pools out in the country.

I did that one summer when they put the line in from Denver to Pratt.


No daughters in bikinis, just millionaire execs jammed into a high-time bonanza watching their project progress every few weeks.
