Default "Airplanes don't kill

OK, guys... I'm making an official announcement. "Airplanes don't kill

people!, people kill people!" This statement is hereby mine and none
of you better use it without my concent! LOL. Monday I'm going to the

T-shirt shop and ordering me 1000 units of various sizes. Let me know
if anyone wants one. I'll donate 10% of the profits to EAA's Young
Eagles program, promise! I don't know how much they will cost me, but
I won't mark it up much. Just to cover my time and gas money and also
to cover the cost of the beer while I talk my graphics guy into
designing it Pro-Bono.


Let me know how many and what sizes you want. It wont cost much,
promise.

Dave Herman, a Seattle C-150 driver, came up with it. Here's a larger view:

What, have you been reading CBD again? :-)

It's OK where I'm at, looking better all the time.

The scariest thing happened this week. We'd been discussing with our management
about the "graying" of the aerospace workforce, and how we need to get some
young engineers and new hires into the industry to pick up some experience from
the old hands. We've even been flagging spots on org charts for "eager young
space cadets" to be formally recruited if we win a production contract.

Anyway, me and one of my buddies interviewed one this week.

Gawd. Were we *ever* that young? Did we ever have that much energy? That
clear of eye, that narrow of waist?

I kept thinking about the old farts that were with the organization when *I*
started...and realized most of them are dead, now.

Geeze.

Actually, Death continues to be the number one killer all around the
world.

I guess you missed this one.


------------------------------------------
AIRCRAFT INDICTED IN KILLING SPREE
Little Rock, AK
- AP -

Law-enforcement officials confirmed today that a 1966 Cessna Skyhawk has
been taken into custody as the prime suspect in the recent "railroad
strangler" killings. Formal charges are expected soon.

Detective Richard Dackey of the Little Rock Police Dept had this to say:
"This was an old, neglected aircraft that had spent too much time on
the ramp and no time in the air in a very long time. While we can only
speculate as to the causes, we are very confident at this time that we
have our killer. The aircraft was taken into custody peacefully and has
been cooperating with authorities.
------------------------------------------

So, there you go. It happens.

I guess you can see that I'm a bit bored at the moment. So, are you
really a monk? Probably not.
