I flew with a good friend to his vacation house in the Abaco Island chain of the Bahamas.

He has a 6 seat Cherokee its older, like a '75 but very well taken care of and up to date.

Like I said, I grew up around planes. I know a good pilot when I see one.

My friends preflight check was a textbook one. (Everyone should be but, I have seen many who do not do it properly and I think to myself they are a waiting statistic.)

He even pulls out his preflight manual and goes through the checklist, step by step. He has been flying for close to 30 years. I cannot explress how impressed I was that he actually pulls out the manual to this day.
