I did have a few breaks from that frustration when doing lots of business travel in Germany from 2000 to 2003. It was WONDERFUL! Driving on the German Autobahn in a decent car is almost the most fun I can have with my clothes on. The only other clothed activity that surpasses it, is flying my taildragger. There are no lanes in the sky to worry about.
ah the taildragger,my dad had a 170b we used to hit flight breakfasts almost every sunday.that is one thing my dad wished he had never sold,i was about 15 at the time and would have loved to solo'd in it.but that was in the late 70's and times were tough so to speak and something had to go.i hear it is still within a 60 miles radius,would love to ride in her again someday.
