Not sure what it says.

Starterfeld eines Formel-1-Rennens im Cité de l'Automobile, Mulhouse, 3.10.12 Links: Benneton-Renault B195, Baujahr 1995, 10 Zylinder, 3000 ccm, 310 km/h. Mit 11 Siegen fuhr Benneton auch die Konstrukteursmeisterschaft ein. Rechts: Ligier Mugen-Honda JS43, Baujahr 1996, das letzte Jahr für Ligier in der Formel 1. Damit gewann Olivier Panis in Monaco.

I'll have to ask his grandfather. Do all airlines do that? Any idea who they should ask?

I think if you tell a flight attendant the kid will get wings. Not sure what airlines do that.

From what I yahoo'd it seems Southwest, Delta, and American give out wings. Most other airlines probably do too.

No, no they don't.


What DOES deserve some celebration is the fact that the cop failed to show up to court today for my $300 speeding ticket. Thus avoiding a 5 pt penalty on my driving record.

Just found out Will Buxton's dad passed away 14 September from cancer. =( I know some of you guys here have recently lost fathers/loved ones. My dad passed away July 9, 2015 which was why I was MIA in 2015.

Dope rides. And there's your 2016 WDC on the inside. Looks like turn 1 in Malaysia.

'09+ bookshelf rear wing is still junk didn't improve racing either

'17 cars will be worse still until entire car design philosophy changes

R25 (like MP4-20) is hnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng.




Take no offense by this but considering your taste in cars, I'm not surprised you don't like the simpler 2005 cars. Which really aren't all that simple. But compared to the flippy flappy front wings of the 2011+ cars, and generally WTF of the 07-08 cars, they're bland/"dated".

Sorry for your loss bro.

Not sure if I told you guys, but my grandfather ended up passing away. He was removed from ICU and was doing a lot better until he got an infection and caught phenomena. Being in the state that he was in, his body didn't have the strength to fight it off.

I thought the early 90s cars looked weird with the driver's shoulders all exposed.

But they still had an elegant simplicity about them. Especially that Jordan 191.
