I have two really close friends that are Pilots, one is now flying really big Jets around the world.
I remember one time we went to San Diego, my other friend has his own plane and they let me fly it along the coast all the way there. The plane looked brand new. I was having fun with it all the way there...Until I popped out that one stupid question. What year is this plane I asked..I wast thinking 98'99' something in the 90's even. He said 1967. He said no worries, everything has been changed and update...All I kept thinking about is driving an old beat up salvaged car. We all know what those go through. I said land this bitch now. I shitted bricks knowing how old that thing was.
Then again, when we fly in commercial planes that still have ashtrays glued shut.
