The guy who flies this one is said to be a real nice guy.

I'm sure he is.

My friend is 91 years old. I think this to be his last summer.

Once, I heard that the Cowboy's coach, Tom Landry, flew right seat in a '17. I told that to my friend, and he commented, "Not good enough to be left seat, eh?"
