turtlespeed 220 #53 February 27, 2006 Quoteok last hint for the day its white and black and read ALL over [Newspaper] think about it slow and fast?? flys low and high?? can land almost anywhere except water I said there are 2 possibly more these are SPECIAL aircraft that everyone has heard of but much fewer jumped .. Kites Everyone has heard of a kite, you can make kites out of newspaper, they are slow, fast, fly low and high, and they can land - as EVER AIRCRAFT CAN - in water - they just might not be very useful afterward.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Channman 2 #55 February 27, 2006 Don't know if we will have the Fokker's up and running by July, but if we do, your only allowed to jump if you servive the supperior flying skills of our Killer Rabbit. You may have heard of our killer Rabbit, former President Jimmy Carter had a run in with him several years back. The Army Rangers are planning on a commando assult by C-130's to raid the beer coolers. Thats going to hurt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,446 #66 February 27, 2006 Anything can land in water. It's just getting it to take off again that's a challenge.

Gotta love the rumor mill... Ill just wait for J to let us know .... ohhh everyone I heard that Chris is giving the first 100 people at Dublin free rigs (that is a completley MADE up rumor that holds no validity so do not beat up spence if you dont get a rig, cause then he will beat me up)...
