Throttle Forward.......

 PARENTS PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN   

It all started so simple...  One reader asked about a swimsuit issue and another one sends in the first picture (see page 17).  We hope that the two-piece bikini is not found offensive to parents with small children.  We suggest you not leave the magazine laying on your cocktail table for children to accidentally view.  We will allow people to tear out the page with the bikini clad model to post on the office wall.  Fly-Low assumes no responsibility for the effect the picture might have on children or mild mannered adults.  We do appreciate Larry Gene Rothrock from Pine Bluff (AR) for sending in the picture. 

Now, how many of your pilots out there have a beautiful lady that often wears a bikini and enjoys you photographing her?  Catch her at her most seductive moment and snap that shot – send it to us via e-mail for our soon to be printed Fly-Low Publication’s Swimsuit issue & perhaps calendar.  Please keep the pictures clean.  See the picture below of our first entry to the swimsuit issue.

SNOWBIRD FLIGHT              

One of the best perks of my job, as publisher of Fly-Low, is the people with whom I associate.  Having worked at several jobs since I was twelve, the people that I now meet along the path within the year are super.  The story about the Snowbirds in this issue makes one wonder why anyone would leave their home and family for six months at a time and travel the air show circuit.  There was no mistaking the professionalism of the Snowbird pilots, but as several of them joked at the dinner table that divorces were a common occurrence with some of them, due to the absence of the team from their spouses.  One technician was on his third marriage.  Therefore, absence doesn’t always make the heart grow fonder.   

Given all the problems, the Snowbird team was a pleasure to associate.  The same goes for all the people that we call on at airports and aircraft related businesses.  In four years of publishing FLY-LOW, I have only had a couple of grouches that I came in contact.  That’s pretty darn good I would say, therefore, here is a tip of the hat salute to the aviation community from FLY-LOW. 

FOUR MORE YEARS             

Sounds like political verbiage, doesn’t it?  It’s not.  This month FLY-LOW produces the forty-eighth issue.  With the March issue, we begin our fifth year.  How do we celebrate it?  Don’t know…  Just keep on typing and selling, I suppose.  Whatever you do, don’t stop reading FLY-LOW or sending in those precious photos of your lady.  With the sense of humor our readers have it makes a bad day – a good day.  Thanks Larry Rothrock for a good laugh.  Anyone else got any good ideas… ???
