Radial Rants (Brian) 03/01/2010
 The other day Sparky and I was working in the hangar, and as always the quotes from obscure movie came to be main focus of the project. Then I started to think what fictional character I would want to be (pilot of course). Would I want to be traveling mach 1 with my hair on fire in an F-14 Tomcat? Talk to me Goose….or would I want to be Ted Striker coming in to save the ill fated airline. Could I be Mad Murdock of the A-Team? Although I see myself as WWII pilot, I can’t imagine me grinding my teeth while piloting my plane thru battle. After all there is only one John Wayne. No, I see myself on the other end of the spectrum. The guy giving Stearman rides to young punks on their birthdays. Then I remembered one of my favorite characters. I want to be Jake Cutter. 1938 treasure hunting like an Indiana Jones in the south pacific. Just me, my one-eyed dog and a Grumman goose. But then again I never had the need for speed. In case you don’t know some of these characters, Google them……you’re already on the internet. CommentsLefty 03/02/2010 10:38
