Those brush guards in the controls remind me of old GM automatics for their cheap models.

Oh wait...

Turtles in the controls can do weird things to a pilot!

No doubt it would be a slow crash.

A slow enough crash is called a landing...

Like our old crazy ass airport back in the day where the pilot would use the computer to fly right into a checkered board sitting on the side of the mountain then bank right into the crosswind for the runway. I remember there was a story running around about how one time a pilot on a CX flight fell asleep and almost crashed into the mountain.

Long story short, my life sucked pretty hard this semester and I'm moving to Pittsburgh in the fall.

I've neglected my car wise and instead been working on my shooting skills/collection.

I am looking forward to my 4 day weekend. Too bad it didn't start too well. Couldn't fall asleep until shortly after 2am this morning, up before 8. Ah well, should be a decent weekend up at the cottage. Hoping to get a couple rounds of golf in if the weather is ok, otherwise will be out on the ATVs.

Be sure to put AdventureTurtle back right where you picked him up. It will give him good stories to tell when home.

"Dudes, I was like walking along minding my own business, then suddenly I was lifted up and carried onto this flying contraption thingy...then somehow I ended up right back where I started. Not saying it was aliens but it was aliens!"

Probably the 40th generation at a pond by the airport and the story would be more like "Well guys another one of those damned pilots took me for a ride. Third time this month".
