Just landed yesterday in a British Air 73. Unlike American jets, didn't feel
any thrust reverse, just some pretty hefty braking action. At least they
gave us a sandwich, unlike the American carriers.


I wonder if Anthony will be surprised when I stop by his place on Rue de
General in Paris? I have a lot of camera gear, so will be sure to post
photos.


Will do some sail plane flying in Provence later this week- it's a lot
different experience, much adverse yaw and lots of rudder required, and
what's with this flying without headsets?

Take one of his tours and don't tell him who you are till the end. And
if I don't see photos I will be very upset.


As much fun as that might be for the rest of us, it would be service
well past heroic to use some hours in Paris that way.

Choice: Cover a live grenade in the fox hole or a tour with Anthony?

Remember that old Jack Benny joke, he was the legendary cheapskate? He
was being held up, the crook said "Your money or your life" and Benny
paused and said "I'm thinking about it"?
