Jim says,
BTW, what ever happened to those giant under wing Drop tanks that were designed for that airplane that you bought? Did they come with it? As I remember they would have made you the heaviest L4P known?
 
Actually they do still exist and they have room for a radar antenna in the front.
They would not have made it the heaviest - they are only 10 gallons.   ...but they might have made it the slowest.
They have an uncanny resemblance to the original A-bomb.
 
I should get them back from Jack.  In case I need to land at PAO I can drop one on each levy to give me a little more runout area.
speaking of, is it fair to surmise that you have some weight limits for getting in and out of there in the IVP?
(of course there is always the Rossi way - "Who toll you you needa balanced field length?")
