Awesome!

I know I sound like Spickoli, but as a pilot... I love the footage!

Jealous in a big way!

Way to go Devils (not hockey)

That’s a neat video. It reminds me of when I used to bullseye womprats on my T-16 back home, they’re not much bigger than two meters.”

The quote I used was in the book, but not the movie - which is too bad because I think Wedge made a very valid point. Getting shot at “that will just flat rattle some folks.”

You had me wondering if I had missed that line in the movie. Nonetheless it was a good reply from you. :)
