I was at the airport the day he test flew and purchased the Stearman.

Years ago Woodside VOR (OSI) had a voice identifier. Before that, there use to be many scattered around the country.

That can be found in the MM for the airplane.

Less interesting, but the 707 and DC-8 survived and are still flying to this day.

It does have a correlator, and most likely it's not rigged correctly.

I find drinking and gambling as a profession to be a noble one, indeed!

The Enstrom has high inertia blades, so throttle/collective control takes finesse while learning. There is a defined lag between rotor speed and throttle movement. Low inertia rotors react quicker to throttle input.
