Farmertony, I am glad that you are having some fun along with your frustrations. I hope your new 8010 is just what your expectations desire. Of course I have heard the same from those that have just gotten their second wife after a divorce from the previous perfect girl. I think you get the meaning and I only mean it in fun. I too have often found myself as the first man on the starting block running full speed into the night, sometimes finding the first bridge missing or a low limb to clean my clock, while others whispered or hung back to see if I could recover. I always have and I am still having a good time. I think you should stick to farming and buying combines. Should the job for you to fly experimental aircraft come along I would encourage you to turn it down. Your luck is just not good enough. One of the best things I have enjoyed about farming was owning my own Cessna 172 for the last 10 years. Not a single fellow at the mill or coffee shop ever told me a lie about his crops or the 200 acres he combined in one day. I traded it this spring for a Haggie sprayer, a little lower to the ground but still a little like flying, and yes the fellows are back to lying and the girls are now going naked in thier yards, so they say. Good luck to you and remember "pigs don't fly" and "laughter will never kill you". I am still happy with my 2388.
