You'd have thought he could have done better than a Schweizer! Where could he put all those presents?

And if he'd arrived in his sleigh flown by reindeer, he'd have been safer in the event of an engine failure!

Cheers

Well Boys,

yersterday Santa did better than a Schweitzer - he could jump out of a Bell 206 ;-)

Greetings Flying Bull

Guys, it's time. This is going to hurt a little but it's time. Time to be told.

The fact is... Santa longlines the world's Christmas presents using an ingenious underslung roller-sleigh attachment.

I know, I know. Christmas will never be the same for you now.

Santa in fog

Another sad story...
Santa had to go by car today, his flight by sledge was cancelled due to fog...

Rumour has it that Santa encountered a problem on his pre-season flight check with the US FAA.

It is said the Inspector climbed into the sleigh carrying a shotgun.

When Santa asked what the shotgun was for....he was told "... expect to lose one on take-off!"
