Supposedly somebody once asked J.P. Morgan “How much does it cost to own a yacht?”

The life of everyone on board depends upon just one thing: finding someone back there who can not only fly this plane, but who didn’t have fish for dinner.

The hardest thing about landing a plane is the ground!

Not just Toyota, Honda (and some other Japanese brands) have an allocation system that is similar.
