Ok...I'll bite
It was that saucer thingy on the roof that got full of snow, and he crash landed....right ????

I would have thought the cup for the saucer had blown off?

The MIA/AWOL story made me laugh and remember a Chuck Yeager story in his biography-a wonderful read should you happen to.


I don't remember the exact details but?

Yeager was in charge of a bunch of planes and had to account for the whole lot.

One the commanding officers had a huge bug up his rear about them-how many there were and what their condition was.

Yeager, because of the toll that combat was taking on his ships and he could not account for them? He came across this idea to fool the CO-who would go by the tail numbers on the planes.

Yeager would have the crews paint the numbers of the missing craft on newer craft, then insert them into review!


No missing planes? No problem!

Koko,

Kinda sad when your boss can't do anything simple like 'turning a key" to start a plane?

Well it was just a little more involved than that but it's not reassuring to start a plane for a pilot then a few minutes later have to be cataputed from the ship with him flying.

Did I miss something or is my Senility kicking in today. I am not grasping the meaning behind either statement. I often miss the meaning of Richard's post but in this case I'm missing the meaning on both. Would you mates humor an old guy and explain.

Starting a plane, from what little I know about it, is not a key/clicker-nor as Wom says, a simple dip stick operation!

My comments were meant as a little barb toward your Unit Leader for not taking the time to start a plane! I am sure that if it was as simple as turning a key, checking the oil or clicking a clicker, he would have done it himself and not relied on the most important part off getting the plane of the deck-YOU!

In Australia, some guy took a 1200 cc Harley Davidson motorcycle and jumped it 183.7 feet. wow.

Thanks for humoring an old fart. Richard some of your humor is over my head
so just bear with me. I have to say you nail it perfectly sometimes but other
times I just miss your intent. The nude library takeoff on the Dr. Seuss "Green eggs and ham" poem was priceless.

Me to. I was having a shot at your boss for relying on you so much.
Maybe YOU should have been the boss (then you could have sacked him...hee hee)

This movie called Blue Velvet was just on tv. It was weird but I wish I had payed attention, I think it was good. I want to go to Jewel today so I can buy pop for cheaper than at 7-11.

I want a job, man. Over two months of searching and no leads.
