RAGATIGER Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) One really funny storyWell I was called Owl during my childhood because my thik glases (btw I got lasik about 8 years ago) so from the begining of teen years I know that to be a pilot was a really non realistic dream so I studied to be and become an engineer but the passion to soar across the sky never got vanish in my heart, so during years of modeller, aviation study my father aswered a phone call asking for Captain Giron (that´s me Armando Giron) we share same voice by phone and my father tought a prank call saying Captain What ??????? the caller aswer him back sorry Col. Giron we're looking for your son Captain Giron (for many people if you like planes you have to be plane captain or to be in the military)so when I returned back from job my father made me call them back but only after doing that he was laughing really heavy he told me the much he enjoyed aswering the call Best day Armando Edited January 25, 2013 by RAGATIGER Quote Link to post Share on other sites
