Cub bites the dust!

[ForkTailedDrKiller]

Is there any truth to the rumour that someone tipped a Piper Cub over at Caboolture this afternoon?

Dr :8

[Jamair]

I heard that a certain well-known CAB based ppruner is currently doing a tail-dragger endo....... could be connected:E

[j3pipercub]

He better not 'ave... I'll... I'll... cry:{

[OZBUSDRIVER]

Nooooo, not BAN.:eek:

[Arnold E]

No wonder ya built a 10:E:E
Ya had ta have the girlie wheel:E
Car'n Jab, let's save the ATSB investigation, give us the full details on how you accomplished the almost impossible:eek:

[Aeroo]

It wasn't JCP was it? :sad:

[ForkTailedDrKiller]

Geez Jaba, you did make a mess of it !!

Can't wait to tell the Townsville Refueller he was right - again!

Dr :8

[remoak]

I TOLD you guys! Dangerous damn things. Now get that wheel welded onto the front immediately...

[Runaway Gun]

I've had no luck googling the TAF to find the cause !!

[ForkTailedDrKiller]

C'mon you geese, how about we just wait for the official investigation :ugh:


Where is Plankie when ya need him?

He would be able to tell us exactly how Jaba screwed up!

Dr :8

[VH-XXX]

Has anyone heard from Planky since he started his flight from Qld to the UK in his Archer or whatever it was?

[Flying Binghi]

....................:ooh:...........:E

[Jabawocky]

Must have been a GPS problem :eek:

[PyroTek]

Geez, Don't scare me!

[frigatebird]

Whose pocketed the video..? There MUST have been a video..!!

[john_tullamarine]

Two thoughts come to mind ..

(a) enough to make a grown man cry :{:{

(b) there, but for the Grace of God ... and Lady Luck's benevolence ... :\:sad:

[Jabawocky]

OK

Here is the evidence

seriously the CUB is in perfect condition and it was a lot of fun.....BC thinks I am a sick individual for having such fun!

Now Forkie is a trouble maker........for those who did not notice. A bit of Saturday night fun it seems, but it really uncovered all the cub sympatists!

My phone email and PM's have been numerous......FTDK's turn will come :E

Back to normal viewing.....unless you all have some interesting CUB photo's and vids. I wonder why Pyro has not posted any.

J:ok:

[john_tullamarine]

.. hook, line, and sucker ..... ripper video .. that guy has an hour or two in the bird.

[Aerozepplin]

That video actually made me gasp at a couple of points! Brilliant.

[remoak]

Good video. I was trying to do that stuff in the Caravan yesterday, but I wasn't drunk so maybe that is why I was having trouble... memo to self... don't fly sober... :}

[PyroTek]

Jaba: I told ya it'd be great fun! Hence at the moment you find me in the Cub more than anything else.:ok:
Bend it and I kill you! (As will BC)
No pressure though :}

How did you go anyway?

Back to normal viewing.....unless you all have some interesting CUB photo's and vids. I wonder why Pyro has not posted any.
Just woke up from a big night out on the piss.. will try and find some!

:ok:Pyro

[ForkTailedDrKiller]

seriously the CUB is in perfect condition and it was a lot of fun.....

If there aren't pics - it didn't happen!

Dr :8

[Captain Nomad]

Who wants to see Pyro have a go at those stunts in HIS Cub... :E :D

[Tmbstory]

Enjoyed the video, it reminded me of the days in the 1950's when at air shows we would do a slightly similar thing in a Tiger Moth called "The crazy woman takes a fly in an aircraft."

All good fun in those days.

Tmb.

[Jabawocky]

I was lining up in a C185 the other day when Pyro was doing a circuit or two in the Cub.....Radio was "mines Bigger than Yours"

Again I have no proof of photos......but maybe Warbo will drop in and confirm!:ok:

[PyroTek]

I said "Mine's better" :ok:

[Jabawocky]

you aint seen Warbo's 185.........Chuckles and Forkie and 185skywagon would have fights over her!

even has a TV.........yes DVD's for the PAX all built in!

More GNS than Forkie too....:ok:

[Jabawocky]

So which class of airspace was that, G,E,D,C.......pick any other letter!

Get nailing there lad!:ok:

[PyroTek]

Here ya go:

:ok:Pyro

[j3pipercub]

Ah buttercub, soon, soon, I shall have you in my grasp...

[PyroTek]

Don't you steal her away from me!:sad:

[Capn Bloggs]

Here is the evidence

Jaba you maniac! I'm not sure I want to share the sky with you! :}

[Wanderin_dave]

Is that AW in the front seat?

[Jabawocky]

Nahhhh thats Pyro's Hot date!:E

[j3pipercub]

Is that you in a wig Jaba?

[conflict alert]

Where is Plankie when ya need him?

This wouldn't be the JP from the Manawatu (United Aviation days) would it??? If so - where is he hiding/doing these days. I heard that he had departed our shores to cross the ditch after CAA investigated him all those years ago.

[PyroTek]

Yes yes, was my date for the day. Would I let jaba in an aircraft with me? :}

[Jabawocky]

Would I let Pyro in my Retard Vehicle :hmm:

[PyroTek]

Jaba, shall we have a trade? :}

[Jabawocky]

WOT! :eek:

Your woman for the Retard Vehicle.... You gotta be kidding me!

What are the twenty reasons why an "Airplane" Aeroplane is better than a Woman?;)

[Chimbu chuckles]

How gratifying it is to see the same Pyro who repeatedly demanded I justify my assertion that a tw endorsement/experience would make him a better pilot now indicating that one of these days his cold dead hands will need to pried from the stick. "But WHY Chuck, WHY will the cub make me a better pilot?"

And it seems my advocasy for the 'dark art' has another convert in Jaba, who did rather well in his first efforts on Saturday. Same cannot be said of his first fumbling efforts at rolling the Tigermoth a few hrs later - combinations of pitch/roll/yaw and power hitherto rarely seen by this writer.:ooh:

His excuses were imaginative - my favourite was when shown a helmet cam vid of me Cuban 8ing and rolling said Tiger on Sunday was "Ah, you can see stuff from the back seat".

L0w_SVniVBo

Dude you can see stuff from the front seat - the bottom of the fuel tank just for starters.:rolleyes:

As for the evil Dr and his cruelty to fellow man?

What more can be expected from an individual who make a living armpit deep in sundry bovine fundamental orifices let alone one who delights in the application of voltage to testicles - although 'allegedly' not his own?

And if my memory serves '20 reasons why aeroplanes are better than women' makes no mention of Retard Vehicles.

:E:ok:

[Jabawocky]

combinations of pitch/roll/yaw and power hitherto rarely seen by this writer.:ooh:

I bet Bob Hoover would have been impressed with that combination too!:ooh: Its a talent I am sure.....:hmm:

[Capn Bloggs]

Chimbu's better than Bob Hoover - he makes his Tiger prop go backwards! :eek:

[PyroTek]

Yes Chuck, you told me so. Most fun one can have with (or even without?) their clothes on!:ok:
Thankyou for your advice and it is greatly appreciated!

[ForkTailedDrKiller]

Most fun one can have with (or even without?) their clothes on!

Oh dear! Geez Chuck, now look at what ya done. :=

Pyro, you and I need to talk - I'll lubricate a probe! :E

Dr :8

[Chimbu chuckles]

Well THAT should clear up his acne:eek:

[PyroTek]

Chuck you b*stard my acne is almost all gone!
And Forkie, Why don't we have a talk, I'll borrow one of your big arm length gloves.:ok:

[rotorblades]

You'd need one hell of a long probe to clear up acne, depending on which side you approach it from:ooh:

Its like Alien Abduction meets US Customs

[Jabawocky]

Hey J3

your beloved Buttercub is back in the toy box all in good condition!

Flying today was doors open! Was too much fun...Ken had to "suggest" we stop!

J:ok:

[Peter Fanelli]

You'd need one hell of a long probe to clear up acne, depending on which side you approach it from


Talk to the FTDK, he's used to reaching into things he could probably take care of Pyro's acne from the inside. If not he could try that electro thingy and make them all pop simultaneously.

[Jabawocky]

One of the usual suspects is at YLRV so that counts him out!

I do notice they have an ample supply of security fluid though :ok:

So she is none worse the wear J3?

And did you like the new aux tank vent cover?

J:ok:
