Another quiz

The answer to that last quiz was a jellybean dispenser in the form of a moose. Load the jellybeans in its neck, push on its back, and it poops a jellybean or two.
All we are, basically, are monkeys with car keys.

Crash here. Webs is busy cleaning up so I'm writing this for him on his iPod. Hello, Mr. Webs,
It's been a few years since i last heard from you. A few days ago, I had a chat with Viff and your name came up, so I decided to pop up and say hi.
A lot has happened since we last talked. After I left Warbirds, I played Aces High for a few years. Several Israelis played it and the 101 lived and became a powerful force but, same as WarBirds, people started leaving Aces High and eventually I found myself alone.
That was around five years ago, and several months later I got drafted and started the IAF flight course. I did quite well and was selected to attend fighter-pilot school. After a year and a half, the air force kicked me out of the course but left a window open if I ever wanted to come back.
I decided to leave the air force and went to infantry. I joined one of the elite reconnaissance regiments and in May 2007 finished my training and became operational. After about half a year, I went to the officer academy and I've served as an officer in my unit for more than a year.
I havent given up on my flight obsession. I started doing paragliding and kept my account open in Aces High. A few months ago, I contacted the IAF and told them I want to come back and finish what I started. This week I got an answer: they said OK! If all goes as planned, I'll be back there in January.
There are a lot of great guys I've met in the virtual skies I regret I haven't kept contact with. I guess the intensity of the army and lack of free time contributed to it. I must say I think that you have some responsibility for my choices. I still remember my first days in the virtual world when you taught me the basics of everything. I was 12 years old then (I turned 23 on Nov. 5) and that experience still lives in me. I remember sitting in the tower and listening - well, reading the text - and not understanding how a plane can both climb and accelerate at the same time. I remember learning flying in wing formation for the first time, working as a group and as a squad.
I must say I feel like I'm closing a circle here, and in a way this is my way of saying thank you. I hope my message finds you well and in a good shape.
Waiting to hear back from you,
Flyboy
101 "Red" Squadron, Israel
Hi, Flyboy!
Great to hear from you. Thanks so much for the warm letter.
It's strange to think that you're now, like, a man. It seems not that long ago that we were dueling at O's house. I remember you kept beating me by blowing your Spitfire flaps at the top of a loop - I was pissed off at you. LOL
I still fly WarBirds once in a while but like you wrote, life gets in the way.
I'm glad things are working out for you and I'm jealous that you'll be getting to fly a real airplane. I get to fly my dad's Cessna 182 once every two years or so but he doesn't like when I pull G on the turns.
Do you have to start over from the beginning or do you pick up near where you left?
I keep in touch with Viff every once in a while - we're Facebook friends.
Keep in touch. I'd love to hear what happens.

Hi, Webs
I'm restarting the third phase of the course, which takes place just after the first year of three. It's where all the basic flying is done: aerobatic; low-level navigation (300 ft); instrument flying; night flying; soloing; formation flying; and basic air combat. I'm really looking forward to getting inside a plane again. although I barely remember anything.
