Okay... speaking to the 'contraption' from now on;

[sarcasm] Congratulations. You have just managed to invent one of the most powerful, most innovative, most exciting and most multipurposeful things this world has ever known - the jet engine. And yet you still manage to look like the geezer off 'super size me'.

Your only purpose in machine-hood now is to have your wings cut off and be used as a beer can, and as Kevin's uncleaned-since-layne-did-it (joke, layne, no offense) toilet - simultaneously. Oh what fun you shall have. [/sarcasm]

Thus follwed by a fit of screaming as the poor thing is dragged off to... dun-dun-DUUHHHH...the admin board.... [smiley=evil.gif]

;D ;D

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Caproni's designs are so odd that they are actually quite well known! :)

He's good but not that good. We've discussed this aircraft before in this very forum. ;)
