Not That Continental Pilot.......
Hi everyone, I've posted this on the Buick site and I suppose I should here as well. I've had a few inquires as to the state of my health after the Continental pilot that was in the news recently. First off it was not me and secondly, thank you to all who contacted me for your concern. I knew Craig only in passing, but he was a good guy. He flew the 777 while I'm on the 767.
Look for me in Martin next week with the Chevy II in tow.

Re: Not That Continental Pilot.......
As you all might be aware, Boeing is pretty far along on development of a new highly automated passenger jet aircraft that will be single pilot operated. Up front with him will also be a dog. The pilots job will be to feed the dog and the dogs job will be to bit the pilot if he tries to touch anything.
Now see, I'm thinking I could get one of those dogs and train him to ride along with me in the Chevy II and bark whenever I need to shift, so no, no copilot..................

Tom, I think a nice golden retriever could do wonders for your ET's. If you trained him well enough might also help your reaction time and 60 ' s too! But then there's that maintenance issue of dog biscuit crumbs on the seat and the occasional rub on the tummy!
