Sunday night a couple of the boys (names withheld to protect the
guilty) were celebrating late, for the 'morrow was a stand-down. Taking the active in a blue Pontiac Grand-Am, they went roaring down the runway at speeds in excess of 100 mph. Departing the north end of the runway the car flew for 60 feet before touching down on the slope toward Stone Way, where it rolled gently to a stop by the cyclone fence. It would have helped, probably, if it had rolled on its wheels, but instead it rolled down the hill sideways. At least the boys escaped with "minor injuries," but the Grand Am was demolished. As the car took off, one bystander could swear he heard someone in the car yell, "Gear Up!" And that is the absolute, unvarnished truth, mostly. And, yes indeed, I would make fun of a friend. :-) -- Waddling Eagle World Famous Flight Instructor |
