____________________ Received this one from Tom:
==================snip================ You might be a Redneck Pilot if:
Your cross country flight plan uses flea markets as checkpoints You think sectionals should show trailer parks You have ever used moonshine as Avgas Your 172's wheel pants have mud flaps with a reclining nude Your toothpick keeps poking your mike You have ever taxied around the airport just drinking beer You would not be caught dead in a Grumman Yankee You use an old Purina Dog Chow sack as a windsock You constantly confuse Beechcraft with Beechnut You think GPS stands for GOING PERFECTLY STRAIGHT You refer to formation flying as 'we got us a convoy' Your matched set of lightweight flying luggage is 3 grocery bags from Piggly Wiggly You have a gun rack in the rear window You have more than one roll of duct tape holding your cowling on You figure mud and manure in your weight and balance calculations You siphon gas from your tractor to go flying You have never landed at an actual airport even though you have been flying for over 20 years You have ground looped after hitting a cow You consider anything over 100ft AGL as HIGH altitude flying There are parts on your airplane labeled JOHN DEERE You have never seen a real sectional, but own all the TEXACO road maps for your area There is exhaust residue on the right side of your airplane and tobacco stains on the left You have to buzz the strip to chase off the cows and sheep You use your parachute for a portable hanger You have landed on Main Street for a cup of coffee The tread pattern, IF any, on all three of your tires is different You have a pair of fuzzy dice hanging from the magnetic compass You put hay in the back seat so your dogs do not get cold You have got matching bumper stickers on each side of the vertical fin There is grass stains on the tips of your propeller Your hanger collapses and 4 of your best dogs are killed Somewhere on your plane there is a bumper sticker that reads, "I'd rather be fishin'" You navigate with your ADF tuned to only AM country stations You think an ultralight is a sissy new beer from BUDWEISER Just before the crash, everybody on the UNICOM frequency heard you say, "hey y'all, watch this".
