Hi Everyone,
All I wanted to try to do is attempt to find a flight aboard a 747 without
going to far to do so. *I really didn't realize it would be such a battle to

ended my search and HOPEFULLY will end the battles that I began and to my

many wrongs, I was wrong again.

Chill out there Ted, its only a battle if you want it to be. there
probably are better groups to post such a question, but it was SORT
OF aviation related so I dont think there was any big deal about
posting the question here. But if you are going to ask a question
that is sort of flying related dont get so upset if people only SORT
of answer the exact question you asked ( or as will quite often happen
on Usenet , not answer it all or totally change the subject). In this
life you usually get what you pay for and anything else is a bonus.
How much did these answers cost you? I for one was being a bit
tongue in cheek about my G Dubbya comments. It might ( or might not)
surpise you but there is a bit of stereotypical view of Americans
around the world that they dont like to get out of their own country
much, and the way you posed the question kind of played to that
stereotype, even though for all I know you may be quite a travelled
man. I hope you dont take offence to this either, I am an Australian
myself and I know you guys probably have some stereotypical views of
Aussies that may or may not be accurate. ( like drinking beer for
breakfast - ok that one is true but ....)
