no poster has proven me wrong.

Did those high timers bother to tell you HOW you were supposed to stop
that airplane?


you sound very irish.
"the runways are ever so wide but my gosh they are short..."

have you ever wondered why you have a longer runway than absolutely

I know it is subtle but you shouldnt be wearing out the aeroplane
