You will love the Chicken Wings books -- they're great!  (SO true!)  You could always get a 2nd copy of a CW and then you'd have a great pilot-type gift...  Enjoy!!    ;D    ;D

LOL yes he is. However about a book then how about the book by the real Captain Ed (he's also in the comic as Chuck's uncle): Ur Captain Speaking is the title and I think it can be bought in the CW store.

ha ha!
thanks guys!!

personally i would recommend the "your captain speaking" book in our store if you don't want multiple copies of our books.
he's got a great sense of humor (no rated R stuff in there.... just so you know in case that'S what your're looking for)
it also comes signed by the author!

NO GARFIELD!!! he's competition and not very kind to chickens !!  ::complaining:

i don't have a credit card. credit cards aren't as common as in usa here in europe (and especially belgium).

Garfield isn't nearly as good as he used to be.  If we're talking non-CW comics, then Calvin and Hobbes and The Far Side are THE best.  Hands down.   ;D

actually, if you make a paypal account, you can do an E-Check.  I used that for a long time.  And if you have a debit card you can use that too with paypal.

Hi Digits!

Well, we usually can only accept credit card or Paypal payments, but if that's really a big problem for you, I could send you an Email with my bank account information, you transfer the money and I can send you our order as soon as I see it in my bank statement. How does that sound?

Tell me what you want to buy and I can tell you how much it is. ::type::

As for suggestions, like my brother said "Your Captain Speaking" is a good book! Really fun to read!! The aviation humor books by Martin Leeuwis and Ton van Andel  are pretty good too though... The "Skyteam" is a sort of "best of" book of all their previous books.
