Now wait a minute, you pathetic little Wiener! That is actually one of the most insulting things you could say to an eastern Slovak...

Whoa, this really is complicated. But we have the same little enmities between regions here in Austria. Usually it's all friendly though. Oh! And I'm not a Wiener anmyore! Recently moved out of the city!

Just about 30 kilometers south of Vienna to a place called Bad Vöslau. The name might be misleading, it is actually not bad at all!  ::cowboy::  It's right next to a little airport called LOAV.

I will keep LOAV in mind if I will ever end up flying GA to Austria. Only I already have the books, so...  ::whistle::

Hey Tundra,

A quick search on landings.com shows that LOAV is only 3990.3 nm from PAFB. Traveling at around 90kts in your plane it will be a roughly 44hr trip.\
Well worth the travel for a Chicken Wings book . . . .  ;) ;D

I actually printed out and gave her the one where chuck says "Uh Oh" while on a test flight with Sparky.  Just before that we'd taken my Cessna up for it's first flight after having the engine rebuilt  While she's was staring out the window, I pulled carb heat on.  And there was some carb ice!  Needless to say she lost 5 years off her life when the engine started coughing.   ::eek:: 
I was quickly informed that the Rule was I had to inform her before making any changes to the engine controls from then on.   ::whistle::
