Yes, please. When? Flight #? (I know where, of course.)

Default My first encounter with an F40....

...around 10 years ago, when I was minding my own business overtaking at around 75 on an Autobahn in Bavaria - suddenly I thought "Boy, my engine sounds like it's going to break in the next 10 seconds!" And I thought "or is that coming from somewhere else?". Looking into the rear mirror I saw nothing (driving a VW rabbit back then) - except of a thin horizontal red line across my backview. I thought "wow, that can't be anything except the rear wing of an F40". Yes, it was )

He was very patiently waiting for me finishing my overtaking excercise, and when I changed back to the right lane he hit it - not fully, though, I guess he didn't want to loose his buddy in the 348 (or what it was) behind him

Cheers,
Kai
