The Skydash find (Colgan's Chips E-270-2, T-206, T-210 Red Border & others) and follow up discussions was one memorable series of thread. It was interesting to follow from the beginning when everyone thought Skydash was possibly a hoax. Leon (sorry Leon) has to take partial blame for this, due to the previous year's April Fool's hoax (That thread was pretty interesting in & of itself). The thread turned into a gripping thriller with new information after every post...it was exciting to read and was something akin to participating first hand in a well written thriller.

Here are links to some of the Skydash Threads:

Also the in depth discussions of N172s. I forget the exact title, but I believe there is a link in the Archives under N172. Good topic.
