Cool Youngest Wannabe Ever!

At 22:55z on Friday 22/03/02 'Thomas the Tankering Sector' made a faultless landing 'straight down the middle' with a landing weight of 8lb 6oz. It was confirmed shortly after that no heavy landing report for Mrs PP would be required, despite the gear remaining in the fully down and locked position which did not agree with the handle position!. .. .He is currently being refuelled and after a slight nap and full walkaround inspection, will return to stand shortly after 3:30pm 23/03/02 to meet the other two 'disruptive pax'.. .. .He registered with PPRuNe within 16hrs.........is this a record?. .. .PP <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" />

Congrats and good luck. I've got 2. One's 21years old and one's 11 months. Well I thought I'd wait and see what the first one turned out like!!. .. .He's a Club 18-30 rep, may God have mercy on his soul. He drank me out of house and home at Christmas and never showed any signs of brake fade. At his age I couldn't drink 3 pints of Newcastle Brown without getting religious down the Great White Telephone.. .. .Regards to all.
