My brother and I did that all the time. Communication and Trust.

When we used to tie down outside, Margy would hop into the cockpit
and volunteer to do that part of the preflight while I did the outside.

He left out the "When it was cold out Margy would hop into the cockpit..."

I HATE the cold.

Fascinating. When I fly I check everything myself, and if there are other
pilots they are welcome to check too, but, otherwise I always figured it was
my ultimate responsibility. 'Course, that's easy in a Cessna or Arrow.
Also, I don't have a relative or close friend that flies, so it rarely ever
comes up.

Jay's posts about his son and flying remind me
of the family of my hanger mate.

Saturday morning, my instructor and I were standing
outside the hanger talking. A car pulls up full
of teenagers. I recognize at least 2 of them as
my hanger mate's kids and I know from talking to
him that they have PPL's.

We watch as they pile out of the car, swarm over
the Piper Arrow with each of them doing a portion
of the preflight, push the plane out and mount
up. The tallest girl takes the left seat, yells
"clear prop" and they are off.

Good kids.

Retards that live in the basement, play with nothing but themselves and
their computers, and are totally convinced they know everything, when they
really don't know ****. Granted the majority, but useless just the same.

Then it isn't really saying much, is it?

For once you're right,,, you're not much. But that's your own fault.

That isn't saying much, though.
