You have framed pictures of aircraft or aircraft parts proudly displayed on you're living room walls. (I love my propellers)

You go to a college that is on an airport.
You live on an airport.
You honestly can't understand when people complain about airplane noise.

At the Petrol Station you pretend you are filling your car's fuel tank up with Jet A1.

You shout; "Clear!", before starting your Car Engine.

"DSSSM"
Doors

Stearing wheel
Seatbelt

You feel the need to add things to this list.

Because of reading this, I actually said "Clear prop" when I started my car this morning. ;) ;D
