Heh heh.
And now for something completely different.

This airplane has been in Albuquerque for a couple of weeks and I've seen
it flying several times. Yesterday I drove the A out to the little
airport where it's been staying and got a good look at it and watched it
start up and take off and land a few times. Truly awesome. When it comes
up real slow and banks to pass over the flight line -- Holy crap!
Seriously weak knees. There were some old dudes there that had flown them
in the war. A few had been shot down and were POWs. There was an
Austrian guy who remembered seeing large groups of them flying over when
he was a kid. Interesting perspectives and stories.
How's that for off-topic?
