Ron and Margie, Jay and Mary, and the Tcraft couple are the only married
couples who use this forum that I am aware of.

That's right.

When we fly together:

.. The pilot not flying helps navigate.

.. The pilot not flying resists the urge to scream or grab the yoke.

.. The pilot not flying does not offer correction to the pilot flying
unless absolutely necessary, i.e., fear of death.


Our biggest problem is personal preference.

You like a Low Wing and I like a High Wing.
You say it's manly and call me a sissy.
Low Wing, High Wing, Manly, Sissy.
Let's call the whole flight off.

You like a Piper and I like a Cessna.
You like an Archer and I like a Skyhawk.
Piper, Cessna, Archer, Skyhawk.
Let's call the whole flight off.

My apologies to George and Ira Gershwin.
