Hello BT members,

I have been a beechcraft owner now for several years, and I have been lurking on this forum for about a year. I have learned so much from this forum, and from all of you who contribute. Now the time has come for me to shead my computer shyness and say Hi to all.

My name is Don French. I live in Phoenix AZ and I work for Southwest Airlines. I am the proud owner of a Baron E-55. This is my first aircraft I have owned. My experience has been truely great and rewarding.

The exchange of ideas and information on BT is amazing. I hope to start posting regularly on the forum. I look forward to asking lots of questions and learning. I also look forward to to the new relationships and maybe some new friends

:cheers:

Now if I can figure out how to post some pictures...

Welcome Don! Too bad you missed the last BT fly-in in Sedona this past weekend but more will follow given the many fabulous destinations we have here in the SW. Post freely and post often. Now let's see that E55 . . .

Hello again,

To Steve, Neal, Bob, Keith, Larkin and Dean, thanks for the welcome! I look forward to meeting some of you locals soon, and others during my travels.

If you find yourself in the Phoenix area, stop by KGEU (Glendale) and pay me a visit.

Bob I am sure to see you soon. I like flying to KSEZ. I will post another picture of the Baron so you can ID the aircraft when it is parked on the ramp at Sedona. :D

I have now posted my first inquiry about the use of the ipad in Mexico for flight. It is in the Panel Talk section at the very top, subsection Portable Talk.

Go there and give me your input!?!?

Thanks again guys and gals

:cheers:

Hi Rodney,

I hope for your sake you are not related to me. :tongue:

Although I noticed you are from the same area of the country as my dad is from. :D
