I'm working with some folks here in Vancouver, and we were debating the
ideal slogan for a flight school, seems everybody has to have one. -

Anybody have any ideas?

Is Magee's High Flight in the public domain yet?

Cheers

A flight school in Canada?

How 'bout, "Take off, eh!"

... assuming that's not "taken."

"High Flight: We promise not to push you out the door
at 9000 feet."?

(Oh, I know better, but it seemed too damn timely.)

Just what the doctor ordered:

http://www.thesurrealist.co.uk/slogan.cgi?word=flight+school

Keep pressing "Generate" and I'm sure something catchy will pop up that
probably won't have a damn thing to do with Flight Schools but is a lot of
fun. ;)

My PPL instructor in 1984 used to always say that to me after each flight:
"Cheated death again!".

Then a couple' years later I heard on the news, that he hadn't.

Jim,

This is great! Best ones - "Can you tell flight school from butter?", "The
non-sticky sticky flight school", "Flight school, it's what's for dinner",
"I can't believe I ate the whole flight school". Ok, I'll stop...good for a
laugh though.

It only takes two things to fly. Airspeed and money.

My vote's for this one. Though "It's aboot time" is a close second. ROTFL!

"Flight School Stays Sharp 'til The Bottom of the Glass."

I got that on my third reload - although Transport Canada might have
something to say about appropriateness!

"Happiness is Flight-School Shaped."
"Flight School Prevents That Sinking Feeling."

OK, I'll stop now. Thanks for that Surrealizer, I needed a laugh!
