Yeah, engineering it was hard, but once I took the propellors off, the rest was easy...

The airfield parts manager couldn't prove it, but he was convinced pilfering was on the increase.

Trim Stab was very pleased with himself. He could fit all of his friends on his new mode of transport.





Childish I know. I hate what he's reduced me to.

A radial engine found its own way of transportation to the dump


On a side note, it awfully looks like a bike trying to mate with it.

Sure it looks short, but it was specially built for little Kylie.
Jordan's the only celeb capable of sitting on the twin radial version...

And the Winner is...

Well there doesn't seem to be much point in wating until 22:00 as there hasn't been any posts for a couple of days. I'd be the first to admit it was a bit of a difficult picture to find humour in, so here goes with the countdown in reverse order.

In Third Place SASless with:

The guys at American Chopper had another hiccup.....Daddy said to Son...."Let's do a radical Bike this time!"

In Second Place toptobottom with:

The airfield parts manager couldn't prove it, but he was convinced pilfering was on the increase.

First place goes to Runaway Gun With:

Sure it looks short, but it was specially built for little Kylie.
Jordan's the only celeb capable of sitting on the twin radial version...

Honourable mentions to Pingdit and cattletruck.

So over to you Runaway Gun.

Runaway Gun is currently living it up abroad at the moment so I know he won't mind me posting for him. I am sure he will pick up the reins again when he returns.

"Dunno, but I heard him say something about 'Fox 3' as he was walking away".

or:

"Oh well. Nobody's perfect".
