Once I read about the speech in Vegas this summer by Lt, Col Oliver North I quickly signed up. After all, Olie is almost a pilot, has a uniform, and is my favorite felon, and with airplanes being so cost free I have a lot of extra $1000 bills lying around. Upon recieving my registration, the CAF board called and asked if I would also speak, since they wanted the oraganization to represent the widests range of viewpoints. I the decided to arrive at Vegas in style. I traded my Spitfire to Eric for his Skyraider, which on the surface might not be fair, but with the price of oil being what it is, I figured I could make out pretty well by marketing the drippings. Don't bug Eric about a ride, he quickly retraded the Spit for an authenic factory original Defender. Now there was room for passengers. Quickly Elton John and John Mark Karr signed up as they really wanted to go see the topless showgirls. Kermit and Howard begged in as they said they could not afford to go on their own. One more seat, who on WIX really knows me, folows closely every post I write? BrokenWrench, of course. At first he was reluctant to accept, being busy repairing" a few minor sqwuaks" on Eric's new plane. When I pointed out that the Dixie Chicks would also be playing Vegas he could hardly wait. So look for us in the cool desert breeze this July.

I knew you were kidding when you said that Elton John wanted to go and look at topless showgirls.

Hey Bill, do you need a mascot for the trip?

I’ve got a hangar cat here named T-28 that would love to ride along!
