While the idiot's in my kill file, I have to respond to this (which Larry
quoted)...

I'm about to drop a heart-stopping amount of money on my very own brand new
tin can which will fly over grass, or hard surfaced, runways at considerably
over walking speed. There's a simple reason that I'm doing it, and it's one
that you'll never understand until you've been up in a small airplane for
yourself. If you don't understand, there's no amount of explanation that
will help.
