Methinks it be a Skippers vessel, not one of 'em Golden Albatrosses. A mighty fine job of berthin' the wee lass someone's done, but even more mighty fine be the sign some wag has stuck t' the rear door of the conquest :D:ok:

I be postin' a daggeurotype if anyone be wantin' teh see.

Arr.

Yes, My appologies not GE after all.

I wonder who put that sign there.....................mmmmmmmm.

Looks ok to me, I can see a couple of staples holding the top bit on.

so, who was driving the van?

Nice wiz....... always the optimist. Guess the sign come from the hangar next door. At least they had sense of humour, a bit more than the senior base for skippers would have had:ooh::ooh::}

AirlinePirate, could you please post some bigger pics. I don't like using my magnifying glass on my computer screen! :}:E

And to think the current crew were adamant they wouldnt have 3 birds up here!!:E

You know it bloke. :E someone won't be able to help themselves. :}
was it a floaty or a wheeled one?.

Only someone from the REAL side of aviation could come up with a sign like that...................................ie HELICOPTERS!!!!

SMOUC

Twas one with floats i believe.

Arr.

I be sorry fer teh size of them pictures... Its not as easy as hoistin' teh Jolly Roger...

And surely it be one of em floatin' Caravans... a wee one wouldn' be tall enough, would it?

Arr.

Gosh!!!! I wonder if it was the keel grinder........ or the new guy from further north east..... or the lovely lady. I miss being up there. :}

wiz, from what i heard the conquest knocked his own tail off trying to park next to the van. :}

Yeah, they'll do that. :}:E

PMSL!!! :E

Wish someone had thought of doing that when the Metro and the lighting tower had a smooch a few years back...

Best thing I've seen all week (well, maybe except for the Borat thread...! :})
