OK, I'm successfully put off.

That'll have to do.

Sorry, that's it's nickname. It does look like it would be a fun ride. Motion sickness or lack thereof hits everybody differently. I embarrased myself as a teen driver when my antics made a buddy's girlfriend sick  :-[.

I still owe Michelle a balloon ride, like a glider that makes me nervous.

Well, I get awfully motion sick.

Can't go on a boat without a bucket.

Can't go in a car unless I'm driving or asleep.

Can't go in a plane without a baggie.

Still love to do all of the above. I just sorta got used to it.

And no, those tablets don't work. Although if I was going to go on the "vomit comet" I'd get an injection of Maxolon before I went up...

The first time I went on a ferry boat my mother was pushing Gravol. 'Ya gotta take these, it'll make ya feel better'. Well, first off I don't get motion sick on a boat or plane and why she figured I needed those, I'll never figure out. I took one, and it was the worst thing I ever did. Dizzy and unballanced, sleepy. Sheesh!! Rode on several ferries and planes of all kinds since and never took no pills. My mother gets sick on a bench swing or in a back seat of a car.  ::)

This must be one souped-up Twin Beech!  I've jumped out of quite a few, but never one with enough power to carry this load outside on one engine.  That's also one strong dude hanging on the prop.   It's hard to see from this photo but I'll bet the pilot has some serious control inputs.

Fun is where you find it I guess. I probably won't ever get to fly in a Mig or hang onto a prop, so I'll just keep on flying redneck style.  ;D

Can't go nowhere much due to lack of time? What kind of space do you need to take off and land?

It is a minimum performance UL. Things have come a long way in 20 years.

There's an old saying about Weedhoppers. Takes off at 35, cruises at 35, lands at 35 and stalls at 35.  ::)

No photos, as they would be rare, and most everything was destroyed by government. But here are a couple books on the Avro Arrow and the people involved. I think the first book has an aerial view of the aircraft. I'm awaiting their arrival from Amizon.ca
