OT: What a difference a year makes!

Flying home with my colleagues from a trade show in Anaheim on the corporate jet, a Bombardier Challenger. This is the only way to travel!

How'd you take the photo from outside the jet? Your arms are long.

Dude, that chocolate factory gig is working out well I see. Closest I have come to a corporate plane was when I was in the USAF and flew from Guam to Tokyo on a C-130.

Hmmmm. HP2Sport (designer bike) and now a private jet to wing your way around the country. Becoming a bit of a social elitist?

The interior on the old run down Hershey plane isn't as nice as the second picture.
The old Hershey Skyway...
For the anal retentive...

Sadly, I can eat a one pound Hershey bar in a matter of a minute(s)

It has one of the most dependable engine (CF-34) ever put on a plane. Built in Lynn Ma. at GE.

I probably did most of the assembly on it. We love that engine.
