I remember the day!

[Bob Bobbers]

Years ago I use to sell some of the first "mobile phones" for cars and boats.
They were the size of a small suitcase, cost $4,000.00 + and about $2 a minute!

Hey... I still use that model. Maybe it's time for an upgrade.

Remember when everyone had to have a Star-Tac? I think I still have one somewhere...

Those huge cell phones are why I no longer work for the phone company. They were better than the two way radio in the truck, but were too big to be taken seriously.

Five years later I was unemployed. Phones used the internet, Land lines were dinosaurs of the past and those big herkin phones fit in your shirt pocket.

That's OK, I'm making airplanes now and nothing will ever replace them.............

Beam me up Scotty. :Runaway1:

Nothing will ever replace airplanes? Maybe 100 years or so ago the chief of the U.S. Patent Office suggested his office should be done away with because there was nothing left to be invented! And anyone using film in their cameras anymore? Saw on TV last night that Kodak is filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy! It's a crazy world out there what with stuff like indoor plumbing and all that sort of thing.

Airplanes ???? Russia,Japan,China,Canada,Brazil ? are still learning from us? Then watch Boeing and Airbus get small.
