  It is just past 6:30 here and I'm headed to dinner. I'm excited because tomorrow I'm headed down into Italy to visit the Piaggio aircraft factory in Genoa on Monday. I know some of you guys fly or are aircraft buffs. I'll try and take pictures.
  
  I've always thought the Avanti to be a far better design than the Beech Starship, one of which I flew for a couple of years. It was a fat assed suggard incomparison to the Avanti.
  
  Hopefully, they'll perform a little arm twisting and I'll add one to the stable.
  
  E-mail me on RJ if you want copies of my pics.

  I'm really looking forward to these pictures. I can't claim that the Avanti is on my list of favorites, but it sure can hold my attention. It's got something odd about it that keeps me interested.
  
  For those of you who aren't familiar, here's what they look like put together:
