Only a modeler would understand the importance of a roll of tape in the flight box. On a flight on Piedmont Airlines to Florida with my family, I was concerned that my son would cut his finger on a loose cigarette ash tray in the arm of the seat so I requested the stewardess to do something about it. She wrapped it with duct tape (which certainly corrected the problem) but wasn't too pleased with my question "Do you think it will fly now?"

You order something and then when it arrives you get excited over the foam it came packed in.
