SkyDekker 1,465 #202 April 15, 2011 They are considered to be in the same category as powered parachutes. Would you consider a powered parachute the same as a plane? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
normiss 801 #203 April 15, 2011 So long as we consider a revolver, a semi-automatic, and assault weapons to be guns, I would say yes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkyDekker 1,465 #206 April 15, 2011 Quote1. You are not John Correct Quote2. Point is they *are* planes. Ok, if you say so. I wouldn't consider a powered parachute a plane, but whatever blows your hair back. QuoteA handgun and a rifle are not the same thing, but they are both firearms. You and Normiss should get together and argue if firearms = guns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaVinci 0 #207 April 15, 2011 Quote Ok, if you say so. I wouldn't consider a powered parachute a plane, but whatever blows your hair back The planes I listed are not flexible wings which is kinda the definition of parachute. Quote You and Normiss should get together and argue if firearms = guns. You seemed to have missed he is not agreeing with you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
