  A pilot friend sent me this, and the Cessna thread somehow
seems appropriate to inject this bit of OT in.... 

-------------------------------------

 The photographer for a national magazine was assigned to get
 photos of a great forest fire.  Smoke at the scene was too
 thick to get any good shots, so he frantically called his
 home office to hire a plane.
 
 "It will be waiting for you at the airport!" he was assured
 by his editor.
 
 As soon as he got to the small, rural airport, sure enough, a
 plane was warming up near the runway.  He jumped in with his
 equipment and yelled, "Let's go!  Let's go!"  The pilot swung
 the plane into the wind and soon they were in the air.
 
 "Fly over the north side of the fire," said the photographer,
 "and make three or four low level passes."
 
 "Why?" asked the pilot.
 
 "Because I'm going to take pictures!  I'm a photographer, and
 photographers take pictures!" said the photographer with great
 exasperation and impatience.
 
 After a long pause the pilot said, "You mean you're not the
 instructor?"
