This all tends to back up the adage that "If God wanted man to fly, he'd have given him money..."

my first flight instructor used to ask new students "what makes an airplane fly?"

after everyone would fumble around with all the theory of lift and thrust ...

he'd take out a bill from his wallet and wave it around. "nope, it's the folding green stuff".

I've seen some of the days when a pro golf tourney was in our area and the local GA airports were littered with their personal jetA burning aircraft.

This is true, I think John Travolta not only flies but owns something like a 737.

If I had the money, I could see something like a Lear Jet, but owning an airliner wouldn't much appeal to me. Maybe I am just anti-social and don't have that many friends..

Ed Force One in the Iron Maiden livery.. Nice!.. I love it, it's a beautiful Boeing 757, even though the "Eddie" image on the horizontal stabilzer is a little ugly.

Yeah, but with that kind of money you could buy some...

Many famous people are/were pilots: John Travolta, John Denver, Angelina Jolie, Clint Eastwood (helicopter pilot), Morgan Freeman, Dennis Quaid, Harrison Ford, Tom Cruise, Patrick Swayze & Sydney Pollack are the ones that I know.
