Talking Who Puked in 573AT?

I heard 573AT on the radio leaving Houston yesterday. The pilot reported an "airsickness" problem . I recognized the tail number; I flew that plane a couple times in May of '05 when it only had a handful of hours on the airframe.

That's the one that I had the turn coordinator go out in IMC at night, and the altitude indicator was like 10 degrees of bank in level flight, Fun Stuff

Dont think I ever flew on that one, the Only 2000 we got to fly from JAX-PHX was 245AT, pritty nice plane. and Ferried 254AT it had a very bad radio problem. The most memorable one was Definatly "Burger King"- 204BK?

573AT was a brand new 2005 when I flew it. I guess instruments aren't what they used to be. Maybe solid state/glass is the way to go for new GA planes after all, since it seems to be cheaper than steam gauges anyway.

I think it was 304BK. what about Chicken Killer? the one that automatically did steep right turns.

I'm actually Newark-based, but it's good. I was on reserve for a few days after IOE but now I hold a relief line, so that's nice.

Hey I flew Chicken Killer and I didn't think it was that bad.

We called 357DA "Magnum Dumb Ass" back in the day.

I'm trying to find the lyrics to the song invented by someone in the pit. It's sung to the tune of "Ridin' Dirty" except it goes 'Flyin' Inverted'.

Van-Hoolio, I'm at my one-year point and I'm on reserve... but I'm in CLE. I keep flopping between reserve/relief. Next month is looking good for relief though. It's not bad if you live in base like I do.
