A Good Laugh

By General Aviation News Staff · September 22, 2006 ·

One of the funniest items in the last edition was the letter from Roger Lockwood of Sarasota, Fla., (No strings attached), in which he got so comically indignant over his little pieces of string and paper being referred to as “toys.” We all, in the aviation community, have our “toys,” whether they are ultralights, GA aircraft, business jets or C-17s. Glad I don’t get upset each time I am ridiculed. I don’t think my heart could stand it (and I pass a second class medical with flying colors).

Continue publishing stuff like that. I need a laugh once on awhile. Oh, and I enjoy the rest of your publication too!
