Christmas Greetings from the Far East everyone!!!!!

Hope you've all flown safe this year so Santa doesn't have to scratch you off his list.

As for me, I'm gonna roll the dice and gamble I have an equally safe 2004!!! (anyone care to guess where I'm at???) 412driver & 204bDude are NOT allowed to answer!!!! :p

Merry Christmas all and the best in the New Year.

From the Cougar crew on the Rock, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all.

And lets all hope that Santa passed his check ride this year. :up:
 
I once saw a great Xmas card which had Santa in his sleigh and an examiner in the other seat with a shotgun, saying:

"And after takeoff, I'll fail one engine...."

I'll be in Bonnie Scotland for the holiday and I'll raise a glass or two of scotch (no water!) to you all. May the best of the season last all year for you!

I believe that the story goes like this..., and maybe we've all been there!


Santa Claus, like all pilots, gets regular visits from the Federal
Aviation Administration, and the FAA examiner arrived last week for
the pre-Christmas flight check.

In preparation, Santa had the elves wash the sled and bathe all the
reindeer. Santa got his logbook out and made sure all his paperwork
was in order. He knew they would examine all his equipment and truly
put Santa's flying skills to the test...

The examiner walked slowly around the sled. He checked the reindeer
harnesses, the landing gear, and Rudolf's nose. He painstakingly
reviewed Santa's weight and balance calculations for sled's enormous
payload.

Finally, they were ready for the checkride. Santa got in and
fastened his seatbelt and shoulder harness and checked the compass.
Then the examiner hopped in carrying, to Santa's surprise, a shotgun.

"What's that for?!?" asked Santa incredulously.

The examiner winked and said, "I'm not supposed to tell you this
ahead of time," as he leaned over to whisper in Santa's ear, "but
you're gonna lose an engine on takeoff."
