Well then I have a solid part time job for you.
I can run 5 miles a minute, or fly 3 miles a minute. But for all that I've missed contracts because I couldn't be there in a timely manner. In addition, it'd be really darn useful on occassion to be dropped a few miles away from the target.
I've got no problems speeding through the last few miles, it's the first 1000 that can be a problem. You'd be miles away from the interesting stuff, miles in the air if you wish.
