Default Where are all these women?

And I married a woman whose first words with me were to challenge my
interpretation of an FAR in front of a few hundred people. Over the years
I've heard her say (in the airplane parts store) "Isn't the $10 exhaust
gasket worth the money over the $2 one? Get the good ones (all 6 of them)."

She's gotten greasy with me (you should pardon the expression) and held one
end of the wrench while I tightened the other end. She's vacuumed carpet,
polished windows, and in general, been one hell of a partner. She's been
through a forced landing with me and to Oshkosh a half-dozen times. The
fact that she's a commercial pilot CFI may have something to do with that.

They are there. They are wonderful. They are most difficult to find.

Bax said it best. "That's what my FIRST wife said."

I married a man knowing he'd built a plane and may still build another. Who
wants to spend every minute around him?
I only spend the BEST minutes with him...
