The purpose of life is to live it --- and make it worthwhile to the people around you.

Filipina flies a Viper

The F-16 was the featured warplane in that movie --- the movie that spawned my dreams (and probably, of many schoolboys at that time) to become a cocky fighter plane pilot someday. Then fate had its turn and I ended up in a career in training - but that's another story.
