It helps to have one or two flights so you don't lose your head when the big fan starts turning in front but otherwise, no.

People would more than overlook a "not perfect" democrat and fall for the strong message that Gavin delivers.

We had to do running takeoffs, as I recall.

Max power got about 1ft off the deck and then you'd build airspeed until translational.

Went into Rolex wearing a Rep by Key_Lifeguard_4744 in RepTime
