I'd as soon sit on a toilet full of snakes as fly again with either of
them.

Heh! I thought that one would draw some comment. It's an expression my dad
used to use; I think he picked it up in the Air Force.

It is quite a word picture!

It also reminds my of my feelings about a Twin Comanche owner I knew about
25 years ago. He was quite comfortable with his own assessment that there
was no need to maintain proficiency in single engine operations--he needed
only to climb out 10 knots above the recommended speed.

A ride was never offered, and would not have been accepted.

Peter
