Gary Larson's av-doodles

I've always admired Gary Larson's talent. His single panel "Far Side" comics were syndicated in almost 2000 newspapers for 15 years. They can appeal to just about anyone, and without the use of vulgarity or belittling any specific group. Simple and earnest, his highly-relatable (and sometimes silly) sketches made us laugh for years... one tableau and clever caption at a time.Though he retired in 1995 for fear of becoming repetitive, Larson's body of work is profound and will no doubt remain popular for many years to come. 

Here are some of his best cartoons featuring aviation and the wonder of flight:








Thanks for the chuckles Gary!
