I'd be vastly more likely to attempt to take the train =]. It might be feasible!

Do I get Turquoise?

Well either way just as long as your on the move, seeing differnet country and joking with convenience store clerks(or their equivalant on the trian ride) listening to music so much your getting sick of it, and eating food from a sack it's all good.

Uh...zero. But I *do* know how to start one. You pick up all kinds of stuff hanging around military pilots.

A herkybird has four... so you won't be too stressed if you lose one, I guess. :-)

IF. What are the chances, really?

No prob. I have your artistic license right here which, of course, includes all vehicles real and imagined.

And jag, jeni's our tampon, (dammit!) She will bring the energy and pride necessary for the dynamic interpretation of feminine protection.

Depends how nice you are to them during/after start. An abused turbine is more likely to throw a blade.

I'd suggest getting hold of the POH if you wanna fly one, at least you'll know how to feather it. I've got 1 hour in KC-135 (simulator)...but that's a turbojet; no prop to feather.

Feathering position should be labelled right on the throttle quadrant on the prop controls. IIRC, all multi-engine planes have that, unless they changed something. I should just pull the blade angle to maximum, full, or whatever it says there.

I remember my engine-out training even though I have yet to go for my ME rating. I also have to pad my SE time a bit before I can upgrade to my IFR ticket, which is next after passing my BFR. The rules state I cannot be rated until I have 200 hours TT in VFR...I can, however, train under the hood.

I hesitate to bring this up but isn't Jag a red head?

Now see...! Jeni would bring a subtle dynamism to her interpretation of the role. Perhaps gently dragging a string along behind her... Wait a minnit, who's vagina?

Wouldn't being a tampon make Jeni a dyke?

(Maybe this should have been placed in the Tasteless Jokes thread.)
