Hi All,
I trained in my 680E with Bill Leff and just want to say that he's
more than knowledgeable, and that the training was through and very
professional. I don't know of anyone that has his range of experience
and knowledge of Commanders, nor such an absolute command of the
aircraft. I'll be going back to Bill on a regular basis for recurrent
training.
I was up in fond du Lac recently and saw where he landed on the
highway when he lost the engine on his T-6. It's really hard to
believe how low those wires were that he flew under and that he was
able to put the plane down safely on that crowded highway. Proof of
the kind of pilot he is was in that landing.......If you haven't seen
the 'cop-cam' video of the landing you click here to see it. The
video doesn't show the wires he flew under (unbelievably low) nor the
bounce over the cop car that took the movie.

Was that cop going for his gun or did he pull his cuffs? The video ends as
he holds something in his hand that looks suspiciously like cuffs. Bill,
were you cuffed for that?
As a side-note. Why did they make that other guy pull over?
It would be interesting to hear.

They pulled that other guy over for driving on the runway.

In the unedited cop video the white car cut passed and cut off the police cars. They were not happy. They did let them go because they were foreign visitors going to OSH. They stopped to take a picture!

The officer was turning down the volume on the radio that was on his belt. As he cane up to me he said "Man I about peed in my pants!" All of the police were very friendly and professional. The local Patrol Post was selling the video for $5.
The city sent me a bill for $36 for oil dry the fireman put under the plane. The State charged $1600 for the sign I hit.
