Congrats!! It would scare teh shit out of me but I'm glad you won. :)

[gingerlatte]

thanks! i'm not so sure it won't scare the shit out of me, lol. i used to want to be a pilot, but for some reason having kids made the scaredy-cat gene suddenly appear. :p but i thought "omg, when will i get another chance like this?" as long as i take dramamine and the guy doesn't do loops i'll be ok. ;)

Are you using Mieg's Field on the Chicago waterfront?? watch out for the take off and landing!

[gingerlatte]

lol they closed Miegs like 2 years ago, didn't they?? this is off Willow Rd. near 294. how far is that from you? i could strap you to the wing... :p

"lol they closed Miegs like 2 years ago, didn't they"

Yes they did!

I think Willow road is about 20-30 mins south of me. I am not that great in a comfy seat on a plane, could you see me on the wings. I hope your camera is all charged and ready. If you fly due north, I have the grey and white house on the corner. Wave!

[gingerlatte]

cool. let's hope i don't drop anything on you!

WOOHOO! (bring something to throw up in!) ;) Hope it's lots of fun!

[gingerlatte]

will do, lol. thanks!

Wow that sounds like fun (well sort of). I'm not a big fan of planes small ones in particular but that is because of bad weather. Pick a day with beautiful blue skies and it will be great! Wear your cowboy hat!

[gingerlatte]

yes i can't wait for the nice weather now! gotta have the hat! lol
