Can I have the four points clue, please. Found several names of St Paul, Minnesota, base jumpers, dead, alive, jailed, and free, but from there……

Is the challenge a glider or solar powered?

I got a telling off when i had a flight in a Jag, for trying to use co-ordinated rudder, fortunately only a little bit and no kicking involved.
Try that with me mate and I would go absolutely berserk!

You would never hit a bull in the ass with a double bass doing that!!!

Hit the target............ole.........
