There is a large number of retired vets(aviators) here locally who own and fly these. Tells you something about the plane. A few years ago at the Auburn Airshow, a female pilot without her arms, did an aerial display in one that was modified. Very impressive what the human spirit is capable of. Seeing things like that really makes my day.

I think this is her... if not, the word "NO" is not in her vocabulary. I now have no reason to complain about "anything".
