Nevermind that, I can now pretend I pilot a 747 and get away with it. I would have thought I needed an Ferrari or an Aston Martin before I could say that to a bird!

I dunno, my parent's neighbour is a BA pilot and he drives something fairly boring and sensible. Then again, he also owns a scary acrobatic flying death machine so I guess he gets his kicks elsewhere :)
