Catching the Wind

Hi ya'll,

I can just picture me doing this with a very big, brown, contrail.

I'll think about this if I give up RV'ing.

I think I would need a darker suite...so the brown spots wouldn't show

With my age now, I think I'll pass at this. Thinking back though, I've done some crazy things. Sure glad I grew up. Wayne M be sure to post your pictures. I'd love to see your face.

As long as the wind was in my face, it still may be see-able. No telling when on the ground and the contrail catches up.

If I did what he did, my yellow streak would be a darker color.

As a long time F/W and helicopter pilot, that looks like one continuous emergency procedure...the engine's out.

As cool as it is to watch, I don't think I have that much urge to turn myself into a stain on the ground via high speed impact.

I was just wondering how much good the helmet would do if you did hit the ground....no thanks, I'll stick to pulling my 5er for enough excitement.

"If"
Conjunction
(used to introduce an exclamatory phrase):

If I was stupid enough to do that........!

However, if I did that I would be stupid.
