Once again, it's time to make that all-important decision: Would you rather fly first class with tastefully nude Brit model and MySpace hottie Laula or the Icon A5, an amphibious folding airplane with a carbon fiber frame?Either one will stop air traffic if picked up on radar, so we've decided to attempt to weigh the options of this hardly hypothetical situation.
Laula
Pro: Redhead? Check. British accent? Check. Poses topless with whips? Check.
Con: Scintillating cultural commentator: "I cant read or write or talk or anything half the time anywway (sic)."
Pro: Her formal training is as a "quantity surveyor," which will be great for trips to Home Depot.
Con: Her "list of things that make me sad" includes "Not getting my own way" and "All men."
Icon A5
Pro: You only need 20 hours of pilot training to fly one.
Con: Being a two-seater makes for a difficult cross-country carpool.
Pro: Folds up so it can be towed on a boat trailer.
Con: Includes a parachute which might make you wonder if you should have gotten more than 20 hours of instruction.
Make your choice after the jump.

I voted for the plane. You didn't say how many dates would be with Laula. With the plane, I can pick up many more just like her for many good times in the sky. And lots of women love flying high. With a float plane, you can have fun while floating around. So no real contest on the pick.

Um, after thorough research and viewing both sets of photos and aircraft's videos, it's a hands-down choice for the Icon A5, it should last way longer than the girl. And not be nearly so feisty...

I checked the price of the Icon A-5 which is about $139K. Actually a reasonable price for a two seat general aviation aircraft. I estimate that the operating cost(excluding accquistion cost) would be in the $40-$50 per flight hour with the cost reducing slightly over a larger number of flight hours flown. Hull and liability insurance premuims acount for 1/3 or more of the operating costs.
The MySpace model Laula, has no ownership option or exclusity. I don't know what her actual"operating costs" would be on an hourly basis, but I suspect that they would be quite high. Considering that there are other women also advertising their "assets" on the internet on various site, her overall utility is somewhat marginal. There is a saying, If it flies, floats, or f***'s, it is cheaper to rent it. With the girl, there is no insurance that she would even last the evening, and yet she could do enough damage to an ego to last a lifetime. I'll take the plane if I have to, but I would rent it.

Well it all depends on the circumstances. Do I get full control of Laula? Because she might cheat and everything...If not I go for the plane because I get to do whatever I want with it.
If I had control or at least insured to well...you know.
