Glad he'll be OK...

Man, he's sooo lucky....

I wonder if he drives his personal limo & coach bus himself too? Stay in the back where the cocktails & entertainment is, & let your professional pilots/drivers do their job!

We have a friend that owns a G-550, & flies it himself almost everywhere he takes it. While I can understand him having a serious passion for flying, & especially having the privledge to own & fly the best of the best....it would be tough for me to not want to enjoy the features of the plane with my friends/guests, rather than worry with flying it. I wouldn't want to drive my own limousine?

Our friend also has a few other jets, including a military F-16 I believe, that he flys as well. I can understand him flying that for sporting reasons, but the G-550 is meant to be enjoyed from the rear to me!

Hey BLee - next time you take the skater out I'm driving! Hate for you to spend all that $ then still have to get stuck driving the damn thing afterall!

WARNING GRAPHIC

Scroll down this page and the pictures are pretty graphic of him being helped out of the plane.

F-16 Yes i could see flying that as you state for the rush alone, the G-550 I'm with you as well, In the rear Poppin Champagne is where i'd be...

Tony Stark had it right in IronMan...

Your making it way too easy to slam you!!!!!!!!

Actually so is Jack Roush. Making it easy to slam him I mean. How often do you have to slam your head on the wall before you figure out it is not a door.

So bright in some fields and so dumb in others......

If I was in 2 crashes....I would be traveling around on the skinning dog....

While BLee is correct I'm thinking the G550 about flies itself & the F-16 requires one to be on the ball.

JR is one lucky dude. He's ditched 2 planes & lived to talk about it. Since his teams aren't performing & Ford doesn't have a win this year maybe he was just doing it for the attention, or to one up Sully since he now has survived a water & land crash!

All kidding aside I've lived way too many helo, plane & car crashes for my liking. It hits home big time when the guy you competed against just the other day isn't there the following week.

That's where the F-16 comparison comes in!
