Loose - not tight
Lose - to misplace, to not win

Call me a spelling nazi if you wish but I am truly dumbfounded by the amount of times so called intelligent aviators make this mistake.

So what did you mean when you say we are loosing the plot? did you mean we are making the plot less tight, or did you actually mean we are losing the plot.

Rod...iregardless, you realy must chill cause you our getting two uptite about such little things. I hope you and your spelling nazi counterpart find better things too do than to fix the one or to mistakes some of us due when we our tired. So long and have an good nite!
