Darn it. The Lightspeed Sierra was seeming to me like a great balance between quality (Lightspeed reputation) and cost...

I just flew for business this week for the first time in a while and went Delta, and then upgraded (using old points I was only vaguely aware I had) to first class. Not the lap of luxury, but way more pleasant than cattle-class in the back! But no, my wife doesn't like being on those airplanes...

I go for comfortable. But outside the airplane, I like to let people know my passion (after all, I gotta look at their fishing t-shirts, right?): http://analyticalaviator.com/fun-aviation-t-shirts-for-men/

Seems like sound advice...thanks

Thanks, I may have to look around. As to avoiding purchases, is that just to make sure it’s something I’ll continue with? Or for another reason?

Very sad - my old neck of the woods.

Indulge me - what is a “safety pilot”?
