crop duster,

Respect..... I only beat the bugs to death for 3 years and managed one spectacular acrobatic arrival (me in seat, aircraft scattered over 2 acres)

The trouble with our job is that at the end of the day, when you have retired with 10, 20 or 30 thousand hours, nobody will give a ****... you will get the same respect from fellow beer drinkers if you had been a plumber for all that time

We all become has beens too soon, which is why I say it is all about the ride...

Take care mate, those aphids can be deadly..
