1. Covered in grease
2. Possibly inadvisable for your long term health
3. Most do it at least three times a day
4. You always feel kinda bad afterwards
5. Both come in an aluminum wrapper
6. Cheap
8. Both drip on your flight kit
9. People claim McDonald's wings are not really chicken. Pilots claim Douglass wings don't make lift.
10. You can't stop McDonald's.

a buddy is texting me, sitting on an M88... asking how old they are? Says it appears to be the oldest aircraft he's ever been on...?

It never stopped until it was in the grass...It just slowly drifted there.

777 guys.... how often is DXB actually payload optimized? Travelnet always gives the warning for it.

[QUOTE=Sink r8;1615678]Gaggle works. So does: an ASAP report...
Good point. I'll start writing the outline now.
Dear Penthouse Forum:
I never thought this would happen to me...
(It's not too late, is it?)
