Someone once pointed out how small our cockpit fire extinguisher was and asked - what on earth is that going to do? Wouldn't put out a match
The pilot of the day replied - I don't give a **** it's only there to bust the door open and put myself out...

Think it might be more useful than that - but definitely put a different spin on the idea of a fire - rarely in ga are these things considered.

As for polyanything - is hotter in summer, and cooler in winter - melts to your skin and just downright more uncomfortable even itchy... Why on earth would you wear that...

On another note funniest **** I ever seen was a student following along like a little puppy in full flight suit with badge and helmet to his instructor who was in the thongs... Raa attracts all types
