Default Tally Ho!

Hey guys, chiming in from FSU here. The name is Alex, going on 19 next month. My DD is a '98 F-150 but my family is diehard DSM. Sister owns a sick 97 GS-T and my dad owns a 99 Spyder GS that I regularly drive sometimes. As you can see in the siggy, I also own a 1964 Piper PA-28-140 Cherokee, I love to fly! I look forward to meeting some very knowledgeable people.

Edit: Is there a mod that could remove the "@yahoo.com" from my username? Stupid Firefox and its auto-fill...

Gotcha. My brother is the pilot, but i have a few hours in a Diamond. At 6ft 2", that ****er is TIGHT! But man do they pull G's.

My brother and I always pissed off the tower because he has really crappy hearing. To the point where everyone would laugh over the waves. Good times!

I'm not too fond of Diamonds. I am 6'2" as well and my grandpa used to own a Mooney. They're quick as hell but good luck getting anyone over 6' into one
