CS5 is out the door.  They must know it's payday.

Morning Bill
I'm reading your posts if no one else is.   Hope you got your software downloaded and working. My slow connection took 2 1/2 hours but is working very well.
On another note I am flying the corporate airplane from Naples to Flagstaff in 3 weeks with a fuel stop at Santa Fe for dinner. Its a shame I could not talk the owner into making the stop at ABQ but he's paying the bill. Would love to stop and say hello.
Maybe one of these days we will do a trip with a stop over at ABQ. When we go to southern California we go right over you. With our new Citation CJ3 we only stop once going to the west coast and it is usually Wichita. With our older CJ2 it was 2 stops STL,ABQ then LAX.

CS5 is out the door.  They must know it's payday.

I've installed it on my MacPro running10.6.2 and everything went fine.  The intelligent context feature is worth the cost of the upgrade alone.  I've already salvaged two shot from Venice which were ruined by scaffolding and sky cranes peeping over the roofs of buildings.  Of course it needs a bit of fine tuning at the transitions, but on one I spent a half hour a few years back and finally gave up; it took me about five minutes with CS5.

(tap tap tap!  Is this thing on?)  Well drop by sometime and I hope you enjoy the Green Chile Chicken Creme Soup up there in Santa Fe.  Or green chile fill-in-the-blank.  Whatever's for dinner, it will have green chile in it, that's mandatory around here.

Citation, eh?  I used to own an Aeronca 7AC Champ.  More than once I saw that airspeed indicator hovering perilously close to 78 knots.  Just think about that up there at Mach 0.9 and 33,000 feet.  Then I flew a Hughes 269A chopper for a while, another notable sub 80 knot marvel.  Last time I flew was 44 years ago, am I still current?  As you pass over Albuquerque the guy spraying canvas in his backyard is me, assuming they haven't closed the airspace due to the potentially damaging effects to turbine engines from Glamour II paint dust.

Would love to get back in a small single engine airplane and just to do some low level sight seeing. I think its been 25 years since I flew a small piston airplane. These new Citations we fly go to 45,000 feet about 10,000 higher then most of the carriers. The fuel flows at that level are down to about 140 gallons an hour,which is really low for a corporate jet. We can go 1600nm nonstop. I just got out of school for the new airplane and the older I get (60 this year) the harder it gets to go through extensive flight and ground training. All glass cockpit with dual satellite nav systems and HF radio for crossing the pond. Pretty cool stuff and a joy to fly.
Almost as much fun as printing.
Slightly off topic,sorry.
