.... to express how badly wrong DulceDecorum is with his theory.

My brother before his death owned several very badly used and abused airplanes that flew routes between hot and dusty South American cities. Many of his planes had to be stripped of parts to keep the ancient fleet - some planes were used in the Berlin airlift - aflight. The family still has paperwork, including registrations and other official documents from airplanes stripped down to bare bones long long ago. A "valid" registration has no significance whatsoever, it means nothing.

It is obvious DeluceDecorum has had no personal experiences with Social Security and has no knowledge of how the system works or what meanings can be applied to the Social Security Administration's terms and conditions or their policies and procedures. I can personally attest, from the experiences of my own brother's death and from other family members that DeluceDecorum's theory will never hold water. It has no value whatsoever.

By the way - I would like to add that from my own experiences knowing several airplane fleet owners it is not at all unusual to keep registrations. It is a way of honoring those who lost their lives in crashes - they are still up there flying so to speak, much like the US Navy keeping the Arizona active.
