forgot something

Some time this year when going out to my plane on the apron of ZRH I noted a couple going for their obviously first flight together, both in their early 20ties. Either the guy had been a tad boastful when telling her what plane he was actually flying, or she had a totally wrong impression of the term private airplane, as she headed straight for a Falcon 20 sitting on the tarmac in the general direction they were walking. When he pointed out to her that, err, sorry, it's not that one but the Archer behind it, the lady did not take it too kindly and dressed the guy down quite vocally in the sense of "how dare you to even suggest that I step on anything but a business jet" e.t.c. to the stunned silence of some onlookers. She marched off on her high heels with surprising speed and vanished, probably never to be seen again.

Good riddance for him I reckon, she might have proven a much more expensive pasttime then flying.
