139 ft ... - not bad for a first attempt. Maybe it will get better with practice?

The link is a Canadian news outlet, but the story says Crystal River. Crystal River? Florida?

Yee Haw, Florida Man!

Wow!





"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

Slight thread. How many of us have piloted a flying car? I've done it twice. Once in a Jeep and once in a rental Reliant K car.

Back where I grew up, there was a weird double hill at a light intersection of all places that you’d get a 1/4 mile running start and jump between the two neat as you please, getting about a clean foot of air. You had to not only get the speed right but time the light, adjust for cars in your 2 lanes of travel, and watch for the popo. If you got it wrong, all manner of mayhem was possible from whanged up suspension to a bent frame. I made that jump in a pinto, old model Ford Fiesta, a 68 GT Torino convertible and once in the wife’s (then girlfriend) Toyota DX extended cab 2wd. Good times.

Back in 1969 I was the inebriated pilot of a Triumph Spitfire (with a roll bar and 5 pt harness) as it went off the road near Big Bear CA ...and into the top of a tall fir tree. Passenger and I were uninjured, but we both wondered what happened as it was pitch black night and it suddenly became apparent we were airborne. 18 years old :-(

Triumph, Supermarine...a Spitfire is a Spitfire.
