ROTFLMAO ( I actually couldn't care less about either)
Back when flying corporate, Jeff was probably the most down to earth driver and would hang with the pilots, even on race day. He'd walk right up, ask how lunch was and sit down beside the corporate guys to talk airplanes. Jeff had a Lear 36 back then and is flying a Hawker these days. The other real down to earth guy was Dale Earnhart. I'd like to think we had something to do with his choice of a Sabre 65, which was a lot better choice than the Hawker, IMO. As far as team owners go, Jack Roush is an airplane nut. Get him talking airplanes and he follows you around
