A pic for Dusty.

Since I managed to pi$$ him off yesterday... a peace offering.

Hi-res (worth it!)

Immediately after Biff slammed the throttles to Military Power, he discovered that Sgt. Geteven had installed both engines backwards...
 
Runnin' the trim forward, click click click...gettin' ready for a shine-your-a$$ closed, I'll wager. Sorry Bill, like ACES II cannon plugs...the engine mounts are engineered to be maintainer-proof.
 
Wish the Army'd thought of that with regards to a certain hydraulic univalve that made one morning such a thrill...
 
Or even the damn elbow fitting in the hydraulics for the brakes on a GAMA Goat. It may not be as spectacular as being a yard dart, but yer just as dead.
 
SCHWING>>>>>>>> This conversation is hitting me, oh, about 12 inches over my pretty little orange stripped ears...
 
But they are *soooo* pretty. You don't worry yore purty little head 'bout nothing, sweetheart... (running very fast - which is very odd looking, all things considered)
 
Mawk - Let Bill and John scratch your ears, but don't shut off the guy talk - it's fun :-) Then again - watching 'Big-tribble-with-legs' try to run very fast is fun, also...
 
*Awk!* Disrespect! Right here in River City!
 
You expected maybe adulation?
 
Well, er, um, yes. I *am* the Armorer, Master of Castle Argghhh! King of All I Survey... (you, down there at the bottom of the stack, quit wigggling!) *Awwwp!* (sound of tumbling turtles)
 
Oooop. Dang. Thought I'd hidden the Tres Generaciones better'n that...
   
I tried that line already. Didn't work for me, either.
 
Captions, guys, captions! "Oh, yeah, loop radius varies with entry speed!"
 
OK...let me be the first to say it here....those A-10's are so coooool.... I really love that bird. Will it last as long as the B-52? DLM

Sheesh.... Must remember...hit post one time only...
 
All Hail Yertle.
 
Pilot: "These new engines should give us a 30% boost in speed...What was that!!!!" Ground Control: "The Wright-B Flyer just outpaced you." ------ Ground Control to DM546, Wheels are supposed to be fully extended, out. ------ Pilot: "See that crowd over there....watch this, hehehehe....." ------ (On a similar vein) Hair out of regulation, eh? Too long eh? Well, I'll show that looie a flat-top buzz cut.
 
Ahhh, cw4billt, you have forgotten the axiom about maintainers and their equipment. Maintainers are after all, more 'creative' than the average fool.
 
Who was it that said, "whenever you make something foolproof, a new class of fool emerges"?
