Thanks man, glad you like the perspective. Probably the hardest part, that and the ridiculous backgrounds I've been doing.

Honestly, Chuckster, it's details like that which make a good comic a great comic.

And this certainly is a great comic!

Thanks, I don't think my 7-year-old computer shares that sentiment since it has an aneurysm every time I hit the save button.

hehe, the airport does look really nice. And given I wasn't expecting another page outta ya for quite some more time, I wouldn't eat yourself up over a day. :P

Seriously, are you getting faster or is it just me?

I'm getting faster. We have my close friend to thank for that who recently showed me a technique in photoshop that shaved a whole day of work.

heh. Copy paste?

A technique with layers that I'd heard of but no one could really explain in a simple way.

This is awesome.

heh, I was just thinking that they probably moved the school far far away from any possibly destructable civilization is why we see so many trees. I wonder if this will make it harder for him to "go into town" on his off times.

The airport and university are just outside of town, and New England is very forested as you know. It's easy for 'em to get to town though, there's a train stop right there near campus they can walk to.

very badass

You know that air port looks familiar .... I know, the first airport in the old MS Flight simulator had that exact layout! It was on an island in Chicago but the layout was the same!

Probably old Meigs field is what you're thinking of in Flight Sim. I based this one off Nashua, New Hampshire, very standard airport layout.

Nashua! Oh wow, I'm an old Hollis boy myself.
Father used to fly his company plane out of Nashua.

What type of airplane and when? I remember Hollis, that whole area was cool.

Oh! It was a long time ago, 1975 or so. My father was pressident of a small division for the 'brown group' (you remember buster brown shoes?) That was based there. They had a small company plane for the brown executives. It was a prop plane and sat about 6 but I don't remember much else about it, sorry. I only saw it a few times from the ground when my mother would pick up my father after a quick day trip.

Oh yeah, that's a little before my time. I lived there from 2000-2003.

Now class, what does the runway marker "32" tell you?

It's how many times you'll bounce before going off the other end.

You just made me shoot beer out my nose and drench my monitor. 8=P

LOL, what kind of beer?

Chimay - what a waste too, the blue bottle, grand reserve.

Aw man wicked bummer! Yeah, that is a waste. I haven't had Chimay in a long time.

Gold Star 8=)

I knew that, too x3

WAY TO GO CHUCKY!

I like how the background doesn't have any lines, it's just colour, nice technique.

...but there's a spelling mistake in panel three, "Descend to 1200 feet."

I can't wait for the next page.

Thanks, good catch on the spelling mistake, gonna fix that inna sec. I do as few lined backgrounds as possible so they don't interfere with the reader's attention on the characters.

Mmmm, I should start doing that too. Good advice!
