If I had a nickel for every time I've heard this from a pilot, I'd be rich.


What *is* it with you guys, all hanging around with gals who don't like to
fly?


(This started out being a joke-question, but upon reflection, I think I'll
leave off the "smiley"... It's a damned serious question, really, and gets

People always ask Rod Machado what he did to get his wife to fly.
He pushes off the question as long as he can. Finally, he replies:
"You know, I had that problem with my first wife".

I heard that from Bax long before Rod. I wonder who originated it?
