How long after you quit does it take for your insides to look better?
Varies according to how much smoke done-gone-in and for how long. One thing is for certain, things start improving immediately. Just some things may not get completely repaired. Well, I quit smoking 21 years ago. Best think I ever did, and I hope my lungs are nice and pink again. But all these stupid laws making it a crime for people to smoke -- OUTSIDE, now, for chrissakes -- is just sickening. I was visiting a friend at the hospital last week, and noticed that they have now banned smoking OUTSIDE the hospital. All these poor people, some in wheel chairs, must now push themselves OFF HOSPITAL PROPERTY to have a smoke! Un-friggin'-believeable. How did this kind of society develop when we weren't looking? Big Brother really is now EVERYWHERE. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

At that point, you're at a perfect launching point for flying the Pacific
coast - a fantastic air adventure in itself. Ah, you've described my dream flight. Take a couple of weeks off, and go fly around in Newps' territory for a while. Then fly over to Oregon, Washington, and down Hwy 1 to San Diego. I've done it in a motorcyle -- someday I want to do it in Atlas.... Finding aviation beer all the way! I wonder if there are any "aviation-themed" wines in Napa Valley...? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

If my mythological autopilot drinks an aviation themed beer in a county that outlaws driving while smoking, how long do I have to wait before it can fly a coordinated turn? On the ground, engine off, your aircraft has to be able to 1) balance on its mains 2) follow the stripe down the center of the taxiway for at least 100 feet or 30 m 3) with the landing lights off, bend the left wingtip around to touch the spinner, then the right wingtip 4) recite the phonetic alphabet backwards Matt Roberds |

Big Brother really is now EVERYWHERE. I am in favor of No-Smoking legislation. However, before any bill gets passed, the State must get off all of the tax monies smoking generates. All of it ...cold turkey. That amount of lost revenue gets slashed from the budget ...again, cold turkey. No new taxes are allowed, to make up for the deficit. Programs must be cut! And that will NEVER happen. Montblack Jeez, what the heck have I been smok'n? |

For some strange reason, brewers -- especially microbrewers -- seem to be enamored with aviation. Can you name any of your local "aviation ales"? Jet City Ale. It's supposed to be a Seattle microbrew, but it's actually produced under contract by a brewer in (where else?) Iowa. :-))) John Galban=====N4BQ (PA28-180) -- Message posted via http://www.aviationkb.com |

Be careful. Some counties, like the one I live in, are "zero-tolerance." There is NO legal BAC. Which means that even one beer, regardless of the effects on your driving, count as a DUI. What state and county is that? |
