1959 versus 2009 in car crash test

will you fly in a plastic plane, or an old one with metal fatigue?

Considering the last plane I was on was built circa 1964 I'll stick with tried and true. That and the fact that I usually have to fly Delta so I'm pretty much relegated to antique flying machines.

Scare the crap out of your friends with this tidbit:

The year of manufacture is located on the cabin doors frame. Why else do they usher you through that area so fast. ;-)
