What is "old?"


For a pilot or an airplane? ;-)

1) You don't know what "old" is (or feels) until you see a bird whose BuNo
adorns several of your logbook entries sitting in a museum somewhere. In my
case: KA-6D, BuNo 152910, now sitting forlornly in the back lot of the
Western Aerospace Museum at Oakland airport


Well, when I was flying the A-4C in 1977 or so, the one in the Smithsonian Air &
Space Museum in DC was newer than the one I was flying!
