I love flying small planes, and have piloted ones from powered
parachutes to ultra lights to Bonanzas. Owned a cheap Piper and a couple
of Cessna 172's in partnership with three others of like minds.

Hung up the Clark aviation headset after one of my former plane owner
partners and dear friend crashed and burned in his Bonanza



Damn...we do have something in common, Lu-ser. I gave up taking flying
lessons when I learned of the death of one of my buddies, the
redoubtable Morgan O'Leary, in the crash of his private plane.
