Default FYI: Dec 12 MythBusters: Airplane Hour

If you think an MG is difficult, consider, please, the front two seats
of an M20J, in clouds, at altitude, with a three axis A/P working very
nicely. The spirit may be willing, but the flesh is contorted, poked,
vibrated, and then there's the yokes. I don't want to hear about the
yoke being on me, Bernie.

Still, two hours into a long XC, and another two hours to go:
"Cleveland Center, don't be bothering us now."

Unfortunately, my social skills weren't quite good enough at the time
to take full advantage of it. Had to make do later with the back
seat of a Nova. :-(


Try to make do with the back seat of a Corvair.


I'll ONLY say that sometimes my feet got wet, if it was raining! ;-)


You should try an MG! Mind you, it was a lot easier to get them into that
than the Rambler, but less fun when you got inside. Unless you were realy
into getting levers stuck into some uncofortable places (and I bet here's a
website somwhere that capitises on exactly that sort of thing)
