It's impressive how these airplanes can move around the country. I'd be more tired and annoyed doing it Commercial. My 2 goals in life are to avoid commitment and standing in line. The Pilatus gives me this.

Kind of a weird way that the Jepp/Garmin displays the map when zoomed way out with Nexrad turned on. Should have zoomed the non-Nexrad map out

Mike C. Nah, I'm married to a hottie, must be something else........ I do know that some of the Mitts guys have similar trouble to Jason, which I'm sure is why you're looking at jets

Why would any man get married nowadays? The Ovary market has imploded and Variety is the spice of life.
My friend going through divorce right now is being forced to buy half his Pilatus from his wife. Ha

Mike C. I see your thoughts on marriage parallel your thoughts on the SF50. Times have changed. I have a 15 year old. You don't need marriage to have kids. I'll have another when my son goes to college. I may even move 2 in and have a baby with each.
