A buddy’s daughter flies a G2 (not a typo).

TVC tower: Be advised that there is a lot of smoke coming from your engines.

PIC: Affirmative. It’s a bad thing when they are not smoking.

As opposed to avionics where it’s a bad thing to let the smoke out!

On checking in with departure in a G II, I was told “tower reports a lot of smoke coming from your engines” I told him: Good, that means they’re working.
You could rattle dishes in a 10 block radius with the Spey.

Imagine if they were in a Lear 25

I remember flying the GIIB. Lots of noise, smoke, and burned lots of fuel (someone else was paying….). A real hot rod, they don’t make ‘em like that anymore.

Gulfstream Converter - converts Jet A into noise and smoke

I always wanted to fly a Gulfstream since I first saw the opening scene of the TV series Hart to Hart, I thought the plane was hotter than Stephanie Powers.

The smokiest I ever saw take off was a Convair 880 out of Hobby

Any of you guys ever see a MITO (minimum interval take off) from either B-52s or KC-135A models? Smoke would hang in the air for hours.

Smoke!

I think they should declare and land in KSMO...
(making friends all over the place in the process)

Anybody remember when the B-52 Military Training Routs were called "Oil Burner Routes" ?

Phil Mickelson had a G2... N800PM with Tip tanks.
