Whatever happened to "The Duck"?
 

Whatever happened to the PPRuNe Duck and its globetrotting? I have a vague memory of it returning "home". Did it? Or was I asleep at the time and just dreamed it? :rolleyes:

Old 'Un

There would be very few of the original PPRuNers left who would remember the travels our fluffy friend. in fact a good number of the current ones were probably still in school. :rolleyes: Doesn't time fly when you're having fun.:{

There used also to be a very high standard of quality debate and discussion of aviation this 'n that whilst he was travellin' around. Now its mostly about EBAs, AWA's and whether I should go to this or that interview and who does the best/cheapest B737 rating.

I suspect PPRuNe Duck has either expired of terminal boredom or was irradiated to death in one of them new Xray thingummies.:sad:

Can't say I know anything about the PPRuNe duck however the North Queensland Aero Club duck "DOUG" has seen his fair of adventures lately, both around the beautiful far north and overseas.

Probly got confiscated by some neanderthal security goon, who deemed daffy to be a security risk, on account of him not having an ASIC. :ugh:

Strewth........Now I feel really old. Not as old as Guanty et al, but old anyway. :} I have wondered what happened to the travels of the duck as well. lost track after the second great Pprune server crash.

Clarrie me old

Pretty sure he had the full international airline crew ID which seems to work with the blokes down here. I think the hardest thing for customs and immigration was keeping a straight face when they got the Gen Dec and signed off the departure release.:}

Was this the duck that got bird naped from darwin tower after a tower party (remember tower paries, pre 9,11 alkieda bastards took them from us) and went traveling around the world ?

'tis true there was talk of that happening to A duck but I think it might have been an ADF duck??

The Voice will know??;)

:{ eek, Gaunty nuthin like a lil bit of pressure!!

I can tell you that there ain't no duck down my end of the field! :p

naaah The Voice not torkin bout NOW it was THEN 'bout 6 or so year ago mebbe more.:hmm:

I knew that
 

Without giving away my age, (have we been doing this for that long? :uhoh: )I well remember the duck tales - indeed an interesting and humorous read.

As for the tower duck, prolly got took by one of them feral feline things that lurk over those parts!

Oi Voice, are you ashamed of being 30?

My Dear Clarrie
 

ummm NUP! ;)

Clarrie; You should be ashamed of yourself!!!:=:D You of all people should know that a Lady never gets older than 21!!:ok:

Take Note Clarrie!!
 

:D

Now there is a comment from a very wise person.

My old Mum, bless her, used to say "A gentleman never asks a lady her age".

Capt, sir, consider yourself reprimanded :=

Voice, I remain your obedient servant and bow to your superior knowledge.

I presume, therefore, that it is fair to say that the wandering PPRuNe Duck hath returned to wander no more, its wings having been clipped (so to speak).

If the duck was with me right now:E it would be in Wilmington DE, USA.

Wilmington Delaware huh, that's where most people disguise/hide their ill gottens in a good 'ol blind Delaware Trust. :rolleyes: Mebbe Duck was doing a bit of freelancing whilst on tour :E Fess up now??, if I recall correctly you were the last person seen with PPRuNe Duck leaving the country in the direction of Weston Supermare. Anybody actually going to Weston-super-Mare HAS to be guilty of something.:\
