have some 'splainin to do ;-)


Just fill it up with helium and tell 'em it's an airship.

....you'll still have 'splainin to do, but they'll confuse much easier.

Just fill it up with helium and tell 'em it's an airship.


.... and be sure you have the proper ratings. It takes skill to operate
a blow-up doll.

I don't think that flying with a blow up doll is a legitimate way to
enter the mile high club though. so be careful how you log that flight
lest embarrassing questions get asked.

I think they can be used as a safety pilot though.
