Aircraft: Cessna 180, T310R
Hello everyone, I am a member of several forums and on first glance, this is one of the best. Thanks for making it so. I am sorry it took me so long to get here.
Started flying in 1971, all GA, then the airlines (with no extracurricular flying for 34 years), now 6 years into retirement and having a lot of fun in GA again. I bought a 1977 T210M in 2012 which I still have and early this year bought a 1955 Cessna 180. Sorry guys and girls, I am 6'5" tall and just don't fit very well in Bonanza's, and a lot of others for that matter.
I am currently enjoying exploring many of the backcountry airfields in NW Arkansas.
We spend time in Fort Worth, TX and in the woods near Eureka Springs, AR.

Welcome to BT. Nice looking 180!

Wow, 34 years of no GA. Welcome back.

The only problem is now that you've joined BT you won't have time to fly that 180 anymore.

Welcome to BeechTalk. Great looking 180!

I took one of my neighbors (also 6'5"and still flies for AA) for a flight in my F33A and he thought he fit just fine however he's in the market for a 182 as he prefers a high wing.
