One springs to mind: one of our very first gigs in a small East Texas town was not well promoted. At least, that was our conclusion.

It wasn't exactly a catastrophe but it certainly stands as legendary.

A pilot's business is with the wind, and with the stars, with night, with sand, with the sea. He strives to outwit the forces of nature.
