The Boeings have nice clocks although like you said, they dont get used much. All the holds are DME based and I cant remember the last time anyone here timed an approach. I do wear a $30 timex, but thats just to make sure I show up on time. It is actually a whatch someone on this list recomended (I knew I wasnt just waisting my time on this list). F Baum the average quartz movement is at least 5 times the accuracy of the worlds best mechanical movement. quartz with a limibright dial face does it for me. Stealth Pilot |
