where the stamp gets cancelled."

Actually, if the truth be known, not that exceeding the right side
won't get you killed, it's the LEFT side of the envelope that gets
most pilots in trouble. :-))

Or, to put it in a grossly understated way, the part of the envelope where
you would write "Attn: *Whomever" is likely to get your attention!


You put the return (to sender) address on the left side or sometimes
the backside... How apropos.

So true. As far as I know the the real flight "envelope" looks nothing
like an envelope... But the safest place is also on the left side,
drinking tea... ;-)
