Remnants from the RN. Remnants from the Army. A one-trick pony. April Fools Day. Mix it all up and what do you get?

Well thanks for the lift Shergar, the good news is that the teckies will take a few minutes to put the wings back on the Tesco Express, the bad news is that you'll be on it!

Early swing wing designs were not particularly successful and increased the takeoff run exponentially......

Morning all ... for those in the UK that is ...

Thanks to Steve for a great pic and I hope I've done justice as your Deputy Dawg !

Also good to see some new faces having a go ... including one self admitted Furtive Lurker ! The more the merrier. We need more Lurkive Furters

So the Winners Paddock at this weeks Chepstow Knackered Air Force Handicap Stakes (sponsored by Exchange & Mart) are ...

3rd Place F3WMB

Dobbin thinks "Did he just say "Stores is out of glue" ? Why is everyone looking at me ?"
2nd Place Kiltrash

So exactly where do you insert the starter cartridge ?
1st Place FinelyChopped - Just sent you a PM to confirm you as winner

Dobbin: Bugger, I thought he said there's a nice apple core for me, not an Albacore.
Good to see NutLoose is felling better and "firing on all four" ... well nearly all four

Best ...

Coff.

In its report the Daily Scum has said it has proof that the crash was caused by the local chav walking across the runway. They further stated that they had seen the 200 passengers running away in sheer panic screaming "We will all be killed"

Buster was completely chuffed with the outcome of his first Solo and Nutloose was caught peering at the skid marks on the Pilot's Seat.

None of this would have happened if we had a Cat 3c autoland system.
