The original "I don't know it all" of aviation.
Not sure if this conveys the correct message.
When my son was in kindergarten the class was assigned to draw a picture of what they each wanted to be when they grew up. My son drew a stick figure airplane and man, and captioned it "I WANT TO BE A PILAWT" in his child's kindergarten scrawl and spelling at the time. It was refrigerator art for several years, then I took it down and put it away in anticipation of the day he passed a checkride and I could pull it out and show it to him. Alas, some 12 years later he did earn his license, and I went to look for it and could not find it. Hopefully it is just secure in my "filing system" and will turn up some day. Makes me sick to think it may have been thrown away.

Ah, John Malcovich.......There are no real pilots anymore. Just people in nifty uniforms who operate computers; who've never touched an engine; who've never heard the sound of a Spitfire; who've never pulled out of a spin at less than a thousand feet. Real pilots lived in the old days.
Can be very boring during cruise esp to Europe or transcon. I play the XBox when I am in cruise flight
The PoA.WTF!!!!! the fact that someone can steal an image on the internet and use it for their own benefit is LUDICROUS! WHO would do such a thing??!???
