\"Nuts to you, Richard\"

I was finally able to sit down and read through the last FLYING magazine I got--October 2004 with the Ford Tri-Motor on the cover.

It was pretty funny to read the "Flying Mail." Richard Collins got slammed by many regarding his previously column on reading coded wx briefings.

Usually the mail bag has some congrats responses, thoughts on what one might suggest for a certain topic/situation--but I don't think I have ever seen the flat-out attacks that I read regarding Richard Collins--pretty funny to read next time you stop by a "Borders" if you don't subscribe.

Re: \"Nuts to you, Richard\"

FLYING mag doesn't interest me the way is used to, now with their glossy flight training ads and articles that are outside the scope of my interest. I stopped reading FLYING when writers Richard Bach, Len Morgan, and Gordon Baxter stopped their columns. I can still remember reading with full interest Dad's issues of FLYING when I was a kid. I still remember a number of quotes from these men from those articles:

"An airplane might disappoint any pilot but it’ll never surprise a good one."

--Len Morgan

I wish I could come as close to being as good an aviation writer as these men were.

Big MikeD - if you see the Royal Air Force Yearbook half of it is about the RAF guy in your squadron - they did mention sorority parties or something.

Yeah - I saw it at Tower Records, it was like 6 pages worth. Pictures in formation, him outside his airplane, him in his cockpit, him in the spa with 20 sorority girls (isn't that part of the job?).

Mate - if you want totty, it is all about horses. Women love guys that look good on horses - they also say I guy that can ride well is good in the sack - who am I to argue that point.
