I'm a real native. You have questions. Surf's up, dudes! This is where you hang ten.

Damn, I was going to ask "what does c172 stand for", and now I have to think of a different one.

Why not a more modern aircraft?

Hanging Ten is when the surfer positions the surfboard in such a way that the back of it is covered by the wave and the wave rider is free to walk to the front of the board and hang all ten toes over the nose of the board.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cessna_172 <----just an extremely common private airplane. Nothing special. I couldn't think of any names, and I didn't want to be known by my real name.

I know, I fly it. But I would rather fly a cirrus.

I'm actually quite partial to the new (?) Very Light Jet category. That is, a HondaJet or an Eclipse 500. They look fun.

Can't possibly afford one. They go from 2 million and up.

So, San Diego has long been intriguing to me because it is somewhat close to LA, and basically in Mexico. So how's the flair there? Do you see the proximity of the baja Cal. part and Tijuana as a positive influence?
