Truth be known, I am afraid to ask.

And animals, even I never owned a 1982 Chevette. I'll bet you some people on this forum don't know what it is. hee hee.

I have owned two chevettes. One was a 4 door diesel and the other a two door coupe. Don't ever recall what happened to them though. Whenever some pompous ass captain would start talking about his vettes, I would always pipe in with the fact that I had owned two vettes. Didn't bother to tell him they were chevettes. I also had a Vega GT, but that is another story!

I'm guessing King Air...

You go Falcon Girl, put him in his place! Be sure to tell us all what happened when you dropped the other shoe! I want to hear him grovel through your post.

He then must have decided he wasn't really interested in what I had to say or why I was there, so started telling me all about what a kick-a** pilot he is, how he aced out about 5 other guys for this job and really impressed the boss on his smooth landing today..yadayadayada...
then he decides to go for the gusto...asked me if I wanted to see 'his' airplane...so I say okay...licking the chocolate from my ohsodelish Reeses fingertips, I do my best 'dumb chick' and follow this dude out to the ramp...and parked next to my DA50 is a ...........????????

I would of loved to have been a bird watching that scenario unfold. You say to him: "I wonder what it would take to fly a big bad Falcon jet like that as you wander out to his piece of metal? Do you think I could ever learn to fly something like a Falcon? I would of paid $50 to see his big jaw drop when you popped the door on the DA50 and said would you like to see what a real airplane looks like dumb ass?

She's Baaack! Welcome back Falcon Girl! Hope you had some time to recharge your batteries. Sorry to hear about the FO issues though.

Thanks for the Congrats on my son. He's headed for college. He was in a special arts program at his high school, so he'll probably major in film, music, or both. Both of my sons have made Skygirl proud this weekend. The youngest graduating from high school, and the oldest headlining a big summer music festival last night (sticks her chest out and brags)...

I used to hate hotels as well, but most of them have invested heavily in upgrading their bedding. I now find myself sleeping better in them....the lizard pee ice tea though...well, I haven't tasted lizard pee before but I imagine it's rough...
