Georgia: I think perhaps it is a combination of both elements. Fundamentally though, I think pilots themselves are a special breed. Not necessarily the ones that we see sitting around the airport "talking" about flying, ( and they're nice folks too) but rather the folks among us that experience the beauty of God's creation from thousands of feet, on a regular basis. To experience the "feeling" of flight from lift-off to Flair, the miracle and the beauty of it all, makes us all the better for it. If we just take the "hood" off and look around at the wonderment of what we sometimes take for granted, it will not only make us better pilots, but better people as well. Fly relaxed, and smell the world of flight. Wish I still had the coupe, and could still put the windows down, maybe sometime soon. But even in a closed cabin I still experience the "Wonder and beauty of flight". Fly happy, Happy to have you aboard, Georgia. Doug
