planedriver Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Errr, You're not married, are you Tomo ? <<thought not>> Of course he's not! He's still got a few bob in his pockets. Wish I had been as smart as you Tomo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guernsey Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 Well I believe I was even smarter....I was married with three children when my wife took a job at the Guernsey Airport ( I built our house next to the airport ) as a cleaner so that I could learn to fly. I was of course working full time plus a part time job driving taxis in the evening to support the family, but her entire income she dedicated to my flying and has continued through our married life and contributed to the various aircraft we have owned. Even though we are now on pensions, she still saves up to buy me things which are aviation related, headset, Plb etc. etc. Very happily married Alan.. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

facthunter Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 You're a lucky man , Alan (but so am I). Some others aren't so lucky. I've seen some of their wives.( The lottery you lose but still keep paying for the ticket). Nev 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guernsey Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 I take it that you married both the protoype, and entire production run of that variant! Yes the prototype was an early model ultralight with a high performance two stroke and then progressively increased in weight with a more powerful engine, a much better performance, much better handling, a more comfortable ride and all the bells and whistles....that's why I still weigh only 70 kilos..

Guernsey Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Alan you are treading on very thin ice with that comment LOL Not really William as I was naturally thinking in aeronautical terms . If I was well hung I would weigh an extra 5 kilos at least, which would reduce the aircraft's performance, it would be like having a 'Haggis ' stuck between my legs and you know what they weigh . It would also limit my performance duration as I would have to carry less fuel in the aircraft.. Do ye ken what I'm talkin aboot. Alan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
