Flying, cooking and eating...all bases covered

[@brianveteto4558]

Well, the shoutout was the cherry on top! My wife and I were watching your video and had to rewind it twice to make sure it was us you mentioned! Dish looked fantastic and the flying was nice too!! Looking forward to the next video! Fly safe!

Your comment the other week made my day. :-)

Awesome video! I love pasta so I'm going to try this for sure. Thanks for sharing.

[@rudymoore7580]

That looks delicious!

[@letsfly72x]

Another nice video

I would have thought pasta would be hard to bring camping (fragile and all) but looks like a great option!

[@RichWellner]

Pasta is a fantastic camping option! It's Lightweight. You can get water most places you would want to camp. Lots of toppings you might make for it requires no refrigeration or only an ingredient or two that does. This dish, for example, had no ingredients that needed to be refrigerated. Butter and block parmesan are both fine with only the precaution to not leave them in the sun.

Another good video. Looks like you forgot to take the blue plastic off your new headset. I just got the Delta Zulu’s as well, yet to fly with them though.

[@RichWellner]

I have an unresolved problem with them. Leaving them “factory new” until we forgive things out.

[@brettgerber795]

Rich, is your roller concrete? When I had my strip, we created a runway roller out of a 6.5’ long sono tube filled with concrete when I was finishing up pouring our driveway.

[@RichWellner]

Nope, just water. Even with just water it's almost 10,000 pounds. The tank alone is almost 2K. The water is another almost 8K.

[@GlensHangar]

Did you paint your headset?

[@RichWellner]

I was having a problem with it, so left the packing protection on thinking that I might want to return it. Lightspeed has been great in terms of engaging in problem solving, so it looks like I'm going to keep them.

[@GlensHangar]

@@RichWellner Ah - I'm looking at ways to visually alter mine, to make them less recognisable.

[@RichWellner]

He's not doing it anymore, but there was a guy doing water transfer printing, aka hydrographic dipping, on aviation headsets and getting fun results. Might be something worth looking into.

[@AlanMillard]

We went down to Carbondale, so we weren't far from ya.

[@RichWellner]

How was the crowd there? We were worried it would be extra crowded there, but it didn't really look like it.

[@AlanMillard]

@@RichWellner It was surprisingly good. I think the weather on Sunday scared a few people off, but camping was nice Sunday night, and Monday was fun watching arrivals. There was a mass exodus as you might imagine immediately post-eclipse, but after getting a couple apps at the FBO's restaurant and waiting a couple of hours (watching the large conga line of idling jets, that looked expensive), there were only a handful of planes left and we were able to depart immediately.

[@RichWellner]

@@AlanMillard Yeah, we did the same. Chilled out eating our pasta and watching the planes for 90 minutes or so. When we left 90% of the planes were already gone. First engine start was 2.5 minutes after totality. 😂

[@AlanMillard]

@@RichWellner Hey they checked it off their list and have very important business meetings to attend.

[@JM-iy6wm]

Just watched where you go 48 gals. OF gas 12 gal pet he. And you used your pkone to figure it. Can t believe you DON T know times tables This country is in a world of hurt if true

[@RichWellner]

Oh, tick-tock goes the math clock! Slurping up 48 gals of go-juice and a pet-sized 12 gal-look at that calculator go, buzz buzz! If the times tables have flown the coop, we're all riding the tech-broom to tomorrow-town, aren't we? What a hoot if it's true!
