I'D like one of those Doc, ..with tip tanks please..
(would be better overwater, in event of a ditching easier to get out of with a raft, V tail low on touchdown less drag more survivable - low wing for floatation while evacuating ( Max stepped off the Baron wing onto the helicopter without getting his cowboy boots wet) - extra tankage for them long Pacific miles, easier to load a bike with the double doors for airport to town use - and with the frigatebird forked tail it suits my dress sense)
my, i do ramble sometimes - can't have alzheimer's yet

Optimal Jet, Aviation Videos. panoramic pictures, aircraft parts
