Ten plus years ago, chugging along northbound along
the Florida coast IFR in an elderly piston twin, just
south of DAB. Lotsa blue sky. Can't remember why
I was IFR.

Approach controller comes on the radio, asks me if
I see the (european) 747 passing from right to left.

I saw yes.

Approach control says the 747 isn't talking to anybody,
and that I'm cleared to take whatever action I
require to avoid the NORDO 747.

Amazing, approach doesn't even sound pissed off -
he sounds in quite a good mood. Perhaps NORDO
is SOP for Europeans in the USA.

I'm guessing now they'd be met with a F-15 pretty darn quick.

Flying a 185 with 3 pax, whisky and beer, just levelling off
at 4500' felt a steady rythmic vibration. Mags ok, gauges
normal: what the ...! Turned slowly to head back home and
noticed back passengers "doing it" rather enthusiastically.
Continued on op's normal.
