      Running out of gas in an airplane is a rather silly mistake, isn't it?

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        That would happen to me sometimes when I was running moonshine in the Ozarks. Little moonshine in the engine went a long way luckily.

            I was being polite.

              Been reading a book on CVE's in the WW2 Pacific theater. I know those jeep carriers could be hard to fly from, but pilot error killed more pilots than the Japanese.

                  I saw that on the local news today. It happened in Knoxville, which is near me.
