    What plane type are you?

    Looking at your body type, if you were a plane, what would you be?

    Seriously?

    Why? I always grew up "portly" or "stocky". Sure, I did well in rowing and soccer, played in a few tournaments in Europe, but I was that kid who, while fast, if you got in my way, the inertia didn't bode well for the player next to me. :mrgreen:

    As such, I think I was a 767, maybe even up to my wedding and afterwards. (As a kid, I was aflying boxcar! What's that, like a C-117?)

    This morning, at the gym, I caught a glimpse of wings and I'm no longer a 767. Perhaps I'm a 787. Still broad but a bit more tapered.

    How about you?
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    I'd have to say a 747 - there is a lot of sleekness - but a definate hump!!

    I would definitely consider myself a 757. Narrow, but not small, and powerful.

    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Unfortunately I guess I would have to say I'm an A321 :roll: Bit narrow for my weight. I'm not powerful...

    I would say a KC-135, given I'm usually full of gas, but I tend to resemble a Super Guppy these days :shock:

    I'll go with the 737-300...an older model, not too powerful, but very reliable.

    Def an F22, modern, sleek, technology orientated, precise, quick, and not afraid to mix it up when needed.

    C172. Not too old, not too young but reliable, trustworthy and a good ride for first-timers. :P

    Definitely the DC-9: feels old, rickety & loud, but when you pour on the power, watch that baby soar!!!
