Harry was such a gifted student that he only needed one lesson and the instructor gave him his multi engine ticket on the spot. Now his father flew airplanes all over the northeast without every having a formal lesson, and was so good that he got a fireboat welcome in NYC for taking the controls of a passenger aircraft and landing it safely after the pilot had a heart attack. |

Time to duck. --Vic I took the $25 flying lesson (that's what it cost way back then) and was interested in learning, until a buddy from the Michigan State Democratic Committee, with whom I worked on a campaign, died when his private plane crashed. Years later, I guess in the early 1980's, another friend, a printer who did all the forms printing for several clients, died when his biplane crashed into a highway bridge. That sorta did it for me. I really dislike flying, even commercial. I like the time savings to get to a distant location, but that's it. Everything about the "flying experience" these days, from booking a ticket to hoping your luggage made it, pretty much sucks. Very true. There are so many unions involved it really makes it a pain in the ass. That's funny, I just don't have a lot of problems flying commercial. Maybe it's just Harry's attitude that gets him sent to the back of the line? That and the fact that the fat ass must walk a little at the airport. |
