Thanks O.P.!! I had more pics of the jet enthusiast but my PG-13 perculator filter rejected them for posting. Guess that "best of show" shot will just have to be a 20" x 30" poster in my hangar for the locals to see. The resolution is sensational. Anyway, I digress... :twisted:


erm...how can we see this fine resolution?

16 REASONS WHY AIRPLANES ARE EASIER TO LIVE WITH THAN WOMEN

1. AIRPLANES USUALLY KILL YOU QUICKLY: A WOMAN TAKES HER TIME.

2. AIRPLANES CAN BE TURNED ON BY A FLICK OF A SWITCH.

3. AIRPLANES DON'T GET MAD IF YOU DO A "TOUCH AND GO".

4. AIRPLANES DON'T OBJECT TO A PRE-FLIGHT INSPECTION.

5. AIRPLANES COME WITH MANUALS TO EXPLAIN THEIR OPERATION.

6. AIRPLANES HAVE STRICT WEIGHT AND BALANCE LIMITATIONS.

7. AIRPLANES CAN BE FLOWN ANY TIME OF THE MONTH.

8. AIRPLANES DON'T COME WITH IN-LAWS.

9. AIRPLANES DON'T CARE ABOUT HOW MANY OTHER AIRPLANES YOU HAVE FLOWN BEFORE.

10. AIRPLANES AND PILOTS BOTH ARRIVE AT THE SAME TIME.

11. AIRPLANES DON'T CARE IF YOU LOOK AT OTHER AIRPLANES.

12. AIRPLANES DON'T MIND IF YOU BUY AIRPLANE MAGAZINES.

13. AIRPLANES EXPECT TO BE TIED DOWN.

14. AIRPLANES DON'T COMMENT ON YOUR PILOTING SKILLS.

15. AIRPLANES DON'T WHINE UNLESS SOMETHING IS REALLY WRONG.

16. HOWEVER, WHEN AIRPLANES GO QUIET, JUST LIKE WOMEN, IT'S USUALLY NOT GOOD.

Why Women Prefer Airplanes

An airplane takes gas, a man passes it.
Airplanes can be turned off when you don't wish to fly.
An airplane doesn't "let down" before it's time.
With an airplane, size matters.
Airplanes can be overhauled when the engine sputters.
Airplanes do not perform over-gross.
Airplanes don't come with drinking buddies.
Airplanes eventually stop whining.
Airplanes don't use drag, thrust, wait and balance as a checklist.
Airplanes know what a final approach is.
Airplanes don't mind if you position and hold.
In an airplane a soft field landing isn't a disappointment.
Airplanes don't mind if you'd rather just cuddle.
Only toy airplanes run by remote control.

Hellcat,

Regarding "16 Reasons Why Airplanes Are Easier To Live With Than Women" statement #14--I can tell you that a few airplanes I've flown protested mightily when we were working the pattern. My skills were definitely being questioned by that stupid piece of aluminum! :shock:

Good thread and responses all!

Geez, a girl goes away for a little while and look at all the fun I missed!

Paul, you just cemented my picture of you in my head. Hotshot Flyboy and a pretty girl on his arm. Too funny.
