Lars.
I'm out of town this weekend, but check with my secretaries Papa Khann and Seanachai for either us coming there or you coming here for a night of Twilight Struggle or something the next weekend. I'd prefer here because then I can get drunk, but you have a boat, which is nice.
Why don't you get drunk and make the liquor mule drive?
Might be the last good chance for a boat day, summer is rapidly running out.

Every heart holds it's own secrets, and it may well be that you lot hold your secrets more closely to heart, or you're simply too fecking brutish to cast those secrets into actual language, sharing them with your fellows, or you have no secrets, or you've just recently been arrested for vomiting in a particularly egregious manner while attacking a police horse.
I really thought I had gotten the right end this time.

8.05am flight tomorrow...surely not too early for Bloody Mary's? I think as long as it's a tomato based drink that's a good approximation to 'breakfast'.
You wait until 8:05 a.m.?
Slacker.
When we're on vacation, we start the night before.

All I know is that the tears on my pillow weren't mine.
Those weren't tears...

I think this should be put up for debate!
"What is the most suitable implement to wallop seven shades of sh*te out of Michael with?"
So far we have a tire iron...anyone...anyone?
Ah, the choices are vast.
Right off the bat, under Ag Inventory, the 500 gallon Sprayer looks amusing.

And while I'm sure that somewhere in the puddle o' piss that is the Cesspool, Lars explains why he is now 'Sir Lars', and a 'Junior Member', I simply can't be bothered to pull on the waders and go looking for it.
So, 'Sir Lars', give me the short version. You amazingly half-witted bugger who clearly did something awful to your account of many years standing.
When the mods reset all the forum passwords with no notice, the fact that somebody might have switched Internet providers over the last ten years, oh, say about five or sixty times, wasn't really worried about. Couldn't get the new password, couldn't re-register under the old name, couldn't fix or do somfink, so I figured, just add the title.
But, the fact that "Lars" is squirreled away somewhere in the BFC system, never to be purged and always to be an irritant to the sysops, is a comfort.

So is location.
They were coming out of the sun, dummy.
-
Well, I might have been a little bit here,
-
How about a Flieseler Storch?
Only $22,000 for the kit. Something to think about.
-
Sorry Shaw, the SE5a owner had his covered due to rain.
-
Oh, and Nidan, they look like this.
No more for you, because it pleases me. I'm going to go post some for Shaw instead. How do you like them apples, Mr. Smartypants?

Hey, those are clearly my Nikes on the rudder pedals. What? You really wanted me to turn the camera around?
Anyhoo
Supermarine Seafire
Cockpit
-
Excuse me, but are you not actually standing in the cockpit? I don't think you would be too comfortable with the canopy closed, although I know the rest of us would be simply delighted to see your head rolling in the grass by the landing gear.
That would be the old fart who actually flies the plane.
But, you doubt, so here.
Cockpit panel, note redline at 425 knots and that the plane has been modified for two pilots.
Throttle quadrant for controlling the R-2800's. This thing is basically two P-47's flying in close formation.
View out the front, note gas truck.
Guy on wing putting in the gas.
And a view out the back.
Now, if you'd just quit doubting me, maybe I'd have time to post pics of the Zero, or the Supermarine Seafire, or WW1 stuff for Joe, or dalem's P-38's, or maybe even the super hot airplane babes.
But noooo....
-
Back from the show. Guess who's sitting in the cockpit of this rare bird?
That's right, me. Not you. Cuz you're as lame as dalem and didn't go.
A-26B Invader.
This one actually saw overseas service in WWII. Most of the planes you see at shows didn't, which is why you can still see them.
-
Papa Khann barely drinks anything - he was going to be our booze-mule.
Can't believe the original Paperwork King didn't get his passport in time.
You're allowed to bring in 1 liter of booze duty-free, so buy overproof stuff. 151 Bacardi or 128 Bookers or somfink.
You'll have a better chance of making it through the weekend.
-
Take swimsuit photos, send to Stuka.
-
Did a quick check on the webpage, dalem, and there should be at least two P-38's present.

Of course, you could just get off your butt and come with some year...
-
It'll be in the swimsuit photos of our little outing that we send just to you.

Boat boat boat!
I'm kinda crushed for the next few weekends, how about last weekend in August for one or the other?
Sounds good, we'll plan on Sunday the 29th.
-
There's a good one in the museum, but it's in metal. If Glacier Girl is about, I'll try to get some more closeups.
Dice, beer and drunken gnomes would be good. We need to go do the boat thing too.
-
Yep, it's me.
Old nic went in the forum hack, as I don't have that email addy anymore.
-
Sigh, and still no Rules. Some things never change. Anyway, I'm popping in just to taunt the Antipodeans.
Twenty one DC-3s shook the skies over AirVenture Monday afternoon (July26) as part of a mass arrival and demonstration. The flight was part of the largest gathering of DC-3s since World War II with approximately 35 DC-3 aircraft parked on the grounds so far.On my way to Oshkosh, where it will be the 75th anniversary of the B-17 and DC-3. Supposed to have over 50 DC-3's show up, so it will be like the scene in a Bridge to Far when they all go over. Plus, this year they're going to have a night airshow, which will be interesting.
Need any detail pics Mace?

Read this and try to imagine Seanachai's rant when we introduce him to it.
