"And Houston, we have lift-off!" (At the time I was thinking, "Okay... I've got this mofo off the ground, but I'm gonna have to land it!" LOL)

I'm going to Florida next month for my check-off dives, so I'll get some underwater photos, too. "Land, Sea, & Air." [smiley=laugh.gif]

Sweet pics Frank. Looks like a hoot!

Have any trouble getting life insurance?

When we started out latest policy a few years ago, one of the questions was essentially 'do you fly in private aircraft, either as a pilot or passenger or other, to include (a listing of pretty much anything that could leave the ground).

On the diving side, when we disclosed that we were registered divers, they made us produce our dive logs and sign a sworn document that we have not dived in 3+ years, and that we would notify them if we planned to dive again.

I guess they do not insure those who have fun. :-/

Tsk... No, I've never tried to get life insurance. I fly, off-road, and dive. I don't know why that's considered so dangerous, though. After all, I've been MARRIED for thirteen years! If THAT isn't living dangerously, I don't know what IS! [smiley=laugh.gif]

*looking around to make sure Mari isn't reading over my shoulder...* :o ;;D :-X

Good thing I still have a few buddies in the Coast Guard...no matter where you end up, they'll find you. ;;D

S'okay, Tom. All they need to do is ask my wife. She always knows where to find me and always tells me where to go. [smiley=laugh.gif]
