Massively off-topic, but I once worked with a
technician called 'Richard
Head'. Of course he objected to the obvious shortening of his name...
No kidding... one of my frat brothers was named Richard Kuntz.
On a wildly different off-topic note... This was the first day of really
nice weather this season, so I skipped out to the local airport (I haven't
flown in 10 years). Some guy there had just bought a marine skyraider the
day before and was trying it out on the ramp. Most impressive to see the
hydraulic wings unfolding. So of course I got bit by the flying bug again,
I'll have to look up an instructor and get recertified. But to tie it in to
on-topic (it's a reach), I came home and started pondering with the wife
exactly what plane I could get that is economical to fly but has a payload
weight of about 750 pounds with a 6 foot by 21 inch cargo spot....... ;)
