Why does he have to be inverted to enjoy a cookie?

Why can't he just be an Australian pilot enjoying flying "down under"?

Be happy to discuss the proper design and manufacture of scratch built cookies at Petit Jean this weekend.

Scratch built cookies are definitely THE primer. They have primed people to relinquish good scotch, provide golf cart rides across the field at OSH, let loose with muscle power for pounding in tie downs...

Depends on how you feel about the 2-week to taxi program.

At the risk of posting something serious - when you talk to a control tower, you have to say experimental. Towers only. Not ATC, not FSS, only towers.

Now I need to figure out how to keep my browser from accepting cookies as it's getting fat.

Where is this rule found? I was a tower controller for 15 years, and I've never heard of this. Maybe things have changed since I left, though.

And now this thread is no longer fun, since a FAR has been posted.

I think the purchased dough cookies fall under ASTM guidelines for self certification and can either be factory baked or experimental baked, much like the light sport aircraft. Unfortunately, those that tarry long at the former don't fit in the latter.

I blame the FAA certified cookie dough for my addiction. Where do I file a suit?
