I was on an all tourist flight with five people and one guy at lunch decided to make himself look pretty silly.
"I get that the engine with the propellor is used to propel us in the air but where is the motor that drives the wheels on the ground?"
I was about to laugh and say good one but he was dead serious. We all just looked at him. I tried to explain that the one engine does the lot but he was adamant that it wasn't possible.
Think the poor guys new wife looked at him differently from then on.
Had another guy on a flight ask if he could open the window of the 172. I said he could. He sticks his hand out then rapidly closes it, looks at me and says "wow, it's blowing a gale out there!" yeah buddy, it sure is............
