This is the kind of stuff that makes choosing just one so difficult! Cheers

It took me a full 24 hours to make a decision. There isn't a hog in the bunch, so it wasn't easy, I had to think of all kinds of tie-breakers. Cheers

That has always been one of my favourites! The Vulcan video above reminded me of watching the real things flying around in my youth. Sometimes age has its advantages, we got to see a lot of cool stuff over the years. :) Cheers

Just finding one to buy would be the trick, I think hen's teeth are more common... :( Cheers

Now that is just plain funny! True, but funny. :) Cheers

This will not impress you Northern types, but for central Texas, this was HUGE snow! In 2010, it hasn't snowed here since. My M813 and neighbour's M820. Cheers

Waiting for B3-3T and JimK to weigh in. I know Jim is having similar issues with his. B3 is very experienced with working on these, and has a good Edelbrock carb/manifold combination he has used successfully, that fits under the radiator. If we don't hear from them pretty quick, I'll dig in...

Yes, a perfect analogy! Cheers

Remember that contract prices often include development costs, parts support, training, etc. The included number of vehicles are often only part of the total, but most folks divide the cost of that particular contract by the number of vehicles and come up with a grossly inaccurate "per unit"...

To go back just a moment, the late model Spitfires/Seafires (Griffon engined) had contra-props to absorb the power. There were a LOT of handling issues with the ones fitted with the Griffon/5-blade setup, they were not nice to less experienced pilots (and embarrassed experienced ones on...

I wear foam ear plugs even at the movies! And during anything that makes more than the usual household noise. While they are fairly quiet, I wear ear plugs while driving the M1009's and 931's, because the wind noise of the open windows bugs me. For shooting, mowing, running the grinder...

Crickets? I can hear one, but not the bunch on a summer night. My early life in Marine infantry, then in the Airwing flying CH-53's, robbed me of several hearing frequencies and subjects me to a LOUD chorus of crickets 24 hours a day, whether they are there or not. Silence is just a long ago...

Yes, this pilot had honed his trade in Vietnam, where the flying was...different. Such behaviour was technically frowned upon by the Corps during my post-Vietnam time, but flying with flair was still unofficially encouraged. You could be a technically competent pilot, but if you flew like Mr...

Add a Q in front for any of the above converted to a drone. Cheers

And me!! And my home for some years afterwards, until I had the opportunity to come to the US. ;) Cheers

I was browsing that schedule yesterday, and wondering who might be willing to do part of it. Let's do some serious thinking/planning. Cheers

Just took a look at pictures of both, very close. Likely the M109 top will be close enough to adjust slightly to match the S280 sides. Or, just use the M109 pattern for the whole thing! Cheers

I don't have patterns, but I have photos of a painted shelter. You'll have to figure out the top part! :wink: Cheers

I tried that once. Wasn't a good option really. I mean it worked, but.... ;) No on the avatar, I thought I did, but now I don't. Cheers

I keep looking! And at the club meetings... ;) Cheers
