Boy! Thats a Double Ditto from me. I dont like when anyone uses the word
CHEAP in an aviation context. Id like to know if these people look for
CHEAP safety glasses or CHEAP parachutes or CHEAP brakes for their cars or
CHEAP gas heaters for their homes... (you get the idea). I dont know why
guys are always looking for CHEAPNESS. I dont throw my money away but
CHEAP in my book is a synonym for crummy...
