Please don't "sir" me.

One of the things which sets this thread apart from others is the discipline and lack of shambles - everyone else will, I am sure, agree.

Maybe that's why it has run successfully for so long.

Goodnight everyone.

Just to clarify things, the now deleted out-of-sequence post was the Granger Archaeopteryx.

Is yours an YF-23?

No, on second thought I think it's a "SukhoiT-50PAKFA.jpg"
Sorry, couldn't warn you before you went to bed (and I noticed that after I made a guess myself...)

Nite, will be here tomorrow morning.

Oh ____________ (type here anything $****y)!

Forgot to change the file name. I often have it there to remember what the silhouette is, but change it in Photobucket.

Anyways Mea Culpa.

Suhkhoi T-50 PAK FA

Over to you

And, above all: Good morning!

Morning Reg.

Forgot to change the file name. I often have it there to remember what the silhouette is, but change it in Photobucket.
Having done that once before, I now keep two copies in my directory and change the file name before uploading to Photobucket.

In this way my two remaining brain cells don't have to work too hard and I don't have to remember what a challenge is.

Good morning to you all!
Not much of a proof of aeronautical knowledge on my part, just keen sight, so Open House (also because it's hot here if you get my drift...)
HP

Reg: Funny you talk about slipping
