You want me to fly a turkey what? I flew this thing up to 9000' today for some thirsty Turkeys!

The Turkey Guzzler. What they do is bury this thing, so just the dome is exposed. It catches rain fall and it can not evaporate. Then there is this little thing that sticks out from the side and the wild turkeys can get water to drink in a dry year....

Sounds like a good place to go turkey hunting this fall!








Man I hope it starts burning soon

Smile June Calendar

Here are this month's offerings: Blender Pilot having last month raised the bench mark there is a choice of two, with further options of 'normal', and widescreen for those of you with flash new notebooks

This picture was taken by 212man a couple of years ago at Port Harcourt, Nigeria, in a typical shower of rain:

or

The RAF Sea King was photographed last year by crab@saavn in the Lake District in Cumbria, and is a Mk3A of 22 Squadron

or


I'm looking for more images to use for the August calendar.
Anyone with photos that will be suitable for the Northern Summer, and the Southern Winter, please forward them on

Many thanks to John Eacott of The Helicopter Service Australia for creating this month's calendars,
and to 212man and crab@saavn for providing the pics.


Now that John and Carlos (BlenderPilot) have taken to giving us a choice each month, we need even more pics.

Please keep them coming.
