    I'm a retired FAA Inspector. My office's area of responsibility was Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont. Gave checkrides in single, multi-engine and turboprop aircraft as well as in gliders, hot air balloons and seaplanes.

    Still flying for personal pleasure around here.

    By the way, my avatar is one of my other cars--a '08 Miata.

    Mine come from VT= Virginia Tech. AERO = Aerospace Engineer. So that's pretty much me on lots of forums . I try to get it everywhere important to me. But it's getting harder as more and more "Aeros" graduate from VT.

    Fairly simple here... I live in Michigan; the WB mascot's full name is Michigan J Frog; I like frogs...

    I had a silver Prius in need of a cool license plate, and I needed a name for PriusChat, so HYO it is. :)

    First Prius we had was a "rare" shade called Tideland Pearl, hence the name.
