skeptic36 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Hi all, I need suggestions for a suitable punishment for my children ! :hittinghead: This morning Alf Jessup landed his Airborne XT912 at my place, while there my kids rode past on their horses and gave it a good look over. After Alf took off the kids came back, unable to hide the awe in thier voices saying "wow his is nice" and then with unbridled disgust "yeah it makes yours look a bit scummy dad" Now does this look 'scummy' to you?

alf jessup Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Aww come on Merv thats a bit harsh mate. So what do you call a real aeroplane then?? one with stick and rudder eh lol. Well if my memory serves me right the wright brothers aircraft may have had a stick and rudder so to speak but it looked more like a kite than a plane with a wooden frame covered in fabric, and to me a trike does infact look more like a kite than a so called modern airplane plus it has a fabric covering so I do believe a real aeroplane like the first one that flew looks nothing like a Jabby so I think us trikers infact might be closer to a REAL plane than you may think.lol:thumb_up:. Bill, Tell the rider of the cans of PAL on legs that from 500ft no one can tell the difference between your's and mine especially if they are partially deaf, lol, also tell them that when the cans of PAL are done they won't be going too the PAL pegigree dog food factory they will be going to the chum factory.

gofastclint Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Riding something that is made from meat, poops all over your airstrip and is only 1 horse power can't be much fun. I think the kids toys need to be sold off and with the money you could treat yourself to a new fly toy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alf jessup Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 Eh Merv, If you were thinking my post was one the bite you got it wrong, I was taking the mickey out of you, hope you don't think your the only stirrer in the world as I can run with the best of them like yourself. And I wouldn't knock the Jabs as I think they are by far the best value ultralight (real looking aeroplane) you can buy anywhere in the world;) Cheers Alf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seal Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Three thoughts: - I agree that kites look a lot like the Flyer. Most of the rest of us have moved on in the last few decades. - Any means of transport with a mind of it's own is not to be trusted! - Drummers have their uses, for instance, suppose you need to know if the stage is level. Look at the drummer, if he's drooling out of both sides of his mouth then it is definitely level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
