Was browsing through the thread talking about fog at NZWN today and noticed that not one but two consecutive users had a post count that represented a Boeing aircraft.

(I know I know... first post in how long and this is all you can come up with Richard??)

I can't remember if the authors are Boeing fans or not so they may or may not want a record of this precious moment in time.

I can say that I experience the clock thing too, every time I see 7:x7 go past.

I know what you mean Deane.. just to make it worse.. I see flight numbers in vehicle number plates too laugh.gif (eg overseas.. WN#### for Southwest, OS#### for Swissair etc)
And every now and again I see an aircraft plate. I have a cellphone photo of number plate EMB120 , attached to a Toyota people mover...
