    On a lighter note:

    A smokey pulled over my friend for speeding on the highway once asked for my friends pilot licenses as a smart ### remark.

    So my friend passed over his pilot licenses.

    You should of seen the face of confusion on the police officer face.

    The police officer passed back the pilot licenses and said have a nice day sir,
    He turned around, walked back to his car, shaking his head in disbelief and drove away.

    I bet the police officer never asked that question every again.

    A friend of mine has a 780 leased to Schneider. He has an APU and he and his wife carry lots of stuff along with tire chains. He just books loads that he knows he can scale.
