    This quiz is all about airline advertising and slogans- some easy, some a little harder, but you should know these, so this time no multiple choice help. (OK, I'll help a little )

    Identify the airline with the slogan
    1 Catch our smile

    2 the reliable airline

    3 "when you got it, flaunt it".

    4 "The world's favorite airline"

    5 The wings of man

    6 We love to fly and it shows

    7 The proud bird with the golden tail

    8 Something special in the air

    9 The only way to fly

    10 Up, Up and away with XXX (Oh, come on)

    Bonus--
    11 United's theme music- *clear throat* "da, da, da ,da,*pause* da, da (and yes that's a hint)

    12 Southwest-Why do their planes have hearts painted on the side???[/list]

    Congratulations Randy, you have answered all 10, plus both bonus quiz questions correctly. However because it has been determined that you had an unfair advantage, (oh yea, someone sang like a canary ) 27.352 points have been deducted from your total, leaving you with a final score of 92.648 points.

    84-93 Barnstormer---You're a little crazy and somewhat unpredictable, no doubt a result of your many years of power breathing jet fumes. You love traveling to exotic places and are a sharp and tenacious bargainer. You have a discerning eye and are quick to notice small flaws; which are fine traits when bargaining for tapestries in Peru, but major liabilities when your spouse is asking you how they look.

    A detailed explanation of scoring for this quiz is avialble by sending one dozen Mrs Field's chocolate chips cookies (with walnuts), via overnight mail to Migflanker at LAX. Inquires will be answered within 6 to 8 weeks and are not valid in Illinois, Florida and Utah

    This quiz is closed

    1 - Has to be the old Aeroflot internal division (Aeroflot Siberia).

    2 - Air Ghana, Air Ivorie, AfricaOne or any of those Western African carriers.

    3 - Hooters Air

    4 - Ansett Australia - they haven't had a complaint in over 2 years now.

    5 - IOM Airlines. (Isle of Man)

    6 - Any U.S. carrier with it's geriatric crew. Just look at them in hour 11 of a super long haul trans-pac, trans-at and you will know the saying is true.

    7 - Can't think of any retort for this one.

    8 - The old internal division of Aeroflot (Aeroflot Novoroasigorbad)

    9 - Well, I mean to say, duh ! Any airline, unless you want to sprout wings.

    10 - In my part of the world it was TAA.

    11 - Oh too easy - "Wish me luck as you wave me goodbye, here I go, cheerio, on my way"

    12 - So the paramedics know where to apply the defibrillator when Herb has one Wild Turkey too many.

    Again interesting answers Al, they're all wrong, but interesting.
    You know with comments like "Any U.S. carrier with it's geriatric crew..."
    I think you better start traveling under an assumed name and sleeping with at least one eye open.

    Yes, well. Not perhaps one of my more stellar moments, but it's true. Well, the ones I see anyway. The domestic ones probably shape up better.
    I was particularly pleased with answers 3 and 11.
