I love FIRST to real-world connections =]
I'm writing that one down!

my grandfather and father are both pilots, and we're working on restoring an airplane in my very own garage [a cessna 170] so anything aviation facinates me. the new boeing is just INSANE! I'd almost want to fly somewhere just to take a trip on it...and then fly back! =D
