I'm all for it. Do we have a PayPal account set up that we can contribute to for the bid?

Noooooooooo...

It's bad enough that he PM's 100x a day. I really don't want him buzzing my house.

I'll contribute if it will get him into the plane which hopefully will stop him from posting. Did I say that out loud?

Was it 29 million? Jeez! I read about that auction this morning on Yahoo news. That's for the linkage on it! The Sellers Other Auctions were pretty neato as well.

If the bid doesn't go above $2 million AND each of the approximately 7300 members pitches in $274, we can buy the plane for aviationwiz.

This would of course be on the condition that he give each of us one "ride" per year, which means he'll be giving almost exactly 20 rides a day to cdrlabs members. ;)

Deal! LOL. How about everyone pitches in, and I only give rides to the regulars, LOL, that makes it a lot easier! Seriously though, wouldn't it be fun to own an F/A-18, I'd also love a Mig-29 which they have listed too, or they claim they are going to have an F-16 soon too. Lemme know when they get in the F-117 or B-2A, :lol:

I don't feel obligated to contribute, for two reasons:

1. It was my idea to start the contribution fund in the first place and that should be sufficient from me with respect to the fund.

2. I've already mailed him genuine airplane earplugs which he wore on his commercial flight to Phoenix with great success.

Slim :P
