Aviator or avatar?

I have never changed my avatar.

As for aviator, I have been flying the same glider for about 7 years now.

I like my airplane. It's a little four-seater with a big engine. No need to change.

Wait a minute. I get a new aviator every time I fly. Are you telling me I can keep the same one for a while? I am *SO* calling United tomorrow.

You'd be surprised how cheap you can get new aviators.

The older, more expensive ones are retireing faster than the newer cheaper ones can get experienced. But they do come cheaply. You just have to be lucky to get a good one.

Me? Not taking any chances.

No unknown aviators for me.

I've only had a pair of Aviators once, and I sat on them about a week after I got 'em.

The mirrored ones are great for checking out chicks at the beach.

and if they are the "large frame" Aviators, replacing is quite pricey!

I only change aviators if they demonstrate that they can't "straighten up and fly right", or if they fail a checkride more than once.
