I like the stripes! Does he wear an oversized watch too? Our co-pilot is Jenny, as in Curtis Jenny, and her best friend is GeeBee.... They haven't ventured into stripes yet, tho' they've both been flying, one in a Citabria, the other in a Pacer. And Jenny loves to watch the geese and the aeroplanes flying overhead.
I think the first pilots to grace the skies really were heroes. Their chances of survival were not great, yet they still went back up for more. Nowadays, tho' the accident rate is always too high, the chances of survival and the availability of aircraft makes flying a much more everyday thing to do.
In the same time it took me to do 1000 hours in a 152/172, my cousin did 400 hours in a Tornado. Ever so slightly more expensive, therefore every second of every hour flown was extremely intense. Well, thats what he told me, anyway.....
