If you have always wanted to fly a fighter, especially a Spitfire, and you have a big wallet and a small butt, I may have a seat. I may be flying from Denver or Boulder area to Houston April 19. If you are interested, and serious about it, please send me a PM. Thanks

Zach, it would be great if everybody could fly everything for free. Wouldn't it be great if beer and Krispy Kremes were good for us.I hear meditation is good for you and cheap, however OOOMMM doesn't sound as good as a Merlin. As for those who don't meet the CG weight limits, there's B-17s, B-25s etc. Or try "Ed Owning", he'd never even notice an extra body in his Skyraiderasorus.
You are on my favorites list otherwise, since I enjoyed eating all the deviled eggs and cookies at your house. Say thanks to Mrs. Zach again.

Hey Bill,

I'd love to, but then I'd have to find a way to get from Vancouver to Denver, and then from Houston back to Vancouver. I don't think that'll fit into my work schedule. :(

Maybe next time.

Cheers,

David
