Today is the birthday of a milestone aviator.

To commemorate his aviation achievement, the Denizens shall dance:

Up in the air, Junior Birdmen
Up in the air, upside-down!
Up in the air, Junior Birdmen
Keep your nose up off the ground!

And when you see all those birdmen
With their shiny wings of tin-
Then you will know the Junior Birdmen
Have sent their box tops in!

H/t, Mike L.

What. A. Guy. I'm amazed that he got as far as he did without a tail rotor. And note that he's got skids, not wheels. Too bad about the wire strike, although I'm guessing that packing a hacksaw wouldn't have helped...

Hmmm...what does this remind me of... Wile E. Coyote. Super Genius. Yes, I like the sound of that.

{continuing the Junior Birdman tune} "For all you need is: Five boxtops; Four bottlecaps; Three washer; Two wrappers; and ONE Thin Dime!"

Damn! And I thought it took big gonads to fly the Mattel Messerschmidt. What a grand effort if desperately foolhardy.

Now THAT's a single seat machine! Reminds me of the replacement air superiority fighter discussions during the Carter Administration...
