Hmm. I am also in plain text, but for some reason, your font is about half
the size of everyone else's messages. Anyone have any explanations?

I'm not seeing that phenomenum.

There is a MIME setting for controlling the character display in
thunderbird. Something similar should be in outlook as well.

TB:
preferences-mail&newsgroups-message display
languages: default 'character encoding' section
tick the box to 'apply default to all messages'

You keep dry with the high wing but it's easier to climb

Huh? Having flown many missions for Angel Flight in both a C172 and a
Bonanza, I can say that many patients preferred the method for climbing
into a high wing rather than that of a low wing.

There were a few patients I couldn't take because they could not climb onto
the wing to enter the Bonanza.

The PA28 is just an all around better airplane than the C172. It's more
stable, it stalls and handles more smoothly. It lands nicer, it has a
higher useful load, it has a longer range, it has bigger back seats
(-181 vs 172), it is faster, etc. The PA28 is just a joy to teach in.
If you ever have to fuel it yourself, you'll fall in love with the
PA28, no ladder required. So, unless its raining, the PA28 is the best
plane all around.
