Shirl:
That's all speculation. Curious...as a guy, when you fly, do you keep
your identification cards and money in your wallet, in your pocket? or
in a separate bag somewhere else in the airplane?

Morgans:
Either way. It can be uncomfortable to sit on a fat wallet for a period of
time, especially in a cramped cockpit, and the harder the seat cushions, the
more uncomfortable it is.

Decath isn't cramped. Well, I guess depends what you're comparing it to.
It just surprised me that he would (a) take THAT much money with him if
he were just going up for an hour or two (unless he always carried
around that kind of money), and (b) that he wouldn't have it on his
person. I mean...why have it with you if you have to pack it in a bag.
Wouldn't you just leave it home? And most guys I know have their license
and SSA card in their wallet, in their pocket. No conclusions can be
drawn from all that, I know. Seems weird to me, but maybe that's how he
always did things.
