Wings Over Houston

[theblakeness]

Oh God Miramar.
The freaky airshow people were out in force there. Did anyone else see the weird dude in the powder blue flight suit and high heal boots. It was as though the Blue Angels and the Village people had a love child together.
I love the dumb questions we get though static display is better than flying since there is no booze cut off time and if you are awoken by the O club sprinklers its ok beacuse it takes no effort to answer silly questions from 40 year old virgins who have Janes memorized.
Wow I sound like an @sshole.

No but I loved the guy who had the replica Tom Cruise flight jacket from Top Gun. You know, the one with all the patches that dont even make sense.

Jane's Memorizing Telephoto Lens Camera Toting. .

Actual conversation next to "soviet" painted F/A 18C:

"Where did you find this one?"
"In the hangar"
"What country"
"in the US. Right there <i point>"
"Does it fly?"
"yes."
"What is it used for"
"adversarial training."
"Does it turn better than a hornet."
"it is a hornet"
"Get outa here"

Dude leaves unconvinced.

Actual conversation late Saturday afternoon.
Guy: "Dude how do I get to Tijuana"
Me: "Go south on the five until the houses get really sh!tty"
Guy:"Where is the Five"
Me: "Go west on Miramar drive and you will see a sign for it"
Guy: "Which way is west?"
Me: (with huge laughter from other pilots around) "You see that big ball of fire in the sky over there drive towards it, as long as you are squinting you are in the right direction"
guy walks off to wake up somewhere in Mexico with no kidneys

But the hot chicks running around made it all worth while
