    Has to be! - with the quality of "19" builds around it's a shame we can't use them for other than owner training. Working on this IMHO would be far more useful than other fish we are trying to fry!

    Ok- time to get the pub directory and the WAC out as a beer coaster! Where would you like to fly to, or have already and want to share, where you can fly to in your aircraft, taxi - up and spend a night or two. Reminiscing with the country folk over a few quite ales.

    I had a reserve deploy into a perfectly good main one day- the RSL got caught on the main risers! Two canopies for a while both trying to make love to each other- chopped the main before they got to embraced. Not fun!
