What are the new jobs?


Well, the one I had this past summer working as a mechanic/loader for an ag aviation outfit turned into a longer stint than I expected, and I'll be returning next year at a higher pay scale. Right now I'm working for an aviation maintenance shop. I'll be here until the season starts again.
:plus: Are you going to visit someone in Canadia?

I only get about 12mpg on light days less when I am full of pulling the trailer.  My old pick up was a 8-9 mpg beast

AFAIK, EBM works on crop dusters.

Ugly, but useful workhorse planes.

They're so ugly, I won't post a pic of one.  :M

Let's see:

About 6 books
A sit up in bed pillow
2 pairs of pants for PA
A pack of pencils
A jigsaw puzzle
A card game
2 ceramic figures for the PR
2 pieces of exercise equipment
3 bath towels
4 placemats
2 ice tea spoons
