Another One Guts to Dust (Bitumen) Derby

[Willie Nelson]

Sadly, it would appear that harsh scraping sounds have echoed, yet again, throughout the Mud flats of Derby as an amphibious floatplane put down on runway 11 without wheels................DOH!


There but for the grace of god go I...............

[compressor stall]

Better that than the other way around....

[GoNorth]

bugger.....there goes another set of floats

[The Strez]

Heard that the van did a run back out to the horries later that arvo to pick up the stranded punters. Quickest change of floats ever recorded???

[druglord]

Who's amphib? Not the campervan was it?

[Willie Nelson]

Yes, it was Very Hot - Krappy Landing Plane, the punters said as they walked back to the terminal...............

[druglord]

Nice job on the discrete !

[Rind Skin]

yeah yeah....... you guys watch it or it'll be YOU next landing without ya gear down. Those who have and blah blah.

It's all fun until someone loses an eye,

Don't laugh I've seen it happen
