That’s one of the hottest things with wings I’ve seen… But then I’m not a hot pilot, am I.
No way to know. Are you currently on fire?
No?
Well our algorithm which considers your love of tinkering, computers and aviation plus your likely maledom all combine to give you a less than 1% likelihood of being “hot”. Sorry.
Holy excrement that is awesome! Must be skydivers that operate a machine looking like that.
Which is why I’m here, North of The Wall they call the Arctic Circle…
I’m cold… Ice Cold.
We have a skyvan that flies around here with the RAF Falcon skydiving team. They also have a (?) DO228 I think.
You do NOT need to look out the window to know the Skyvan is en route. She has a very unique and interesting sound, a mixture of a straining engine revving hard and the animalistic screech of a wounded cat howling for mercy.
It. Is. Awesome.
Its also slow. So that awesome noise goes on for AGES!! i love it. So ungainly. So disproportionate and just so damn functional. Its gorgeous. But i have been called a weirdo before
That’s the hotness scale in a picture! Left to right, with Daphne being a 10.
I’m somewhere between Scooby and Shaggy…
We like weirdos around here.
Must…not…post…image…of…
Hmmmmmmm…daphne
I’m attracted to the dog. Because I think he’s the pilot.
QED.
Well I’m never gonna get that mouthful of coffee back. Thanks
Well colour me a freak then, because I always found Velma the hottest of the lot.
I prefer nerdy girls too!
The hotness scale I was referring to was calculated by @smokinhole’s hotness algorithm.
Disagree.
You gotta watch the quiet ones. She’s too smart. She’s the sort of girl who would love you intensely for a few years and then realise she’s easily clever enough to manipulate you into risky investments and hide all your money in off shore accounts and then disappear with her college professor leaving you destitute.
Happened to “a friend”, right? Or maybe you “heard a story”…?
I DONT WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT
Thing is. Daphne is like a brand new ferrari. Its great to thrash around for a year or 2 but at best she’s a depreciating asset. Costs a fortune to run and maintain. Terrible in traffic and round the town and when you finally get it on the open road and open her up there is always gonna be a speed trap or a police officer to slow the fun down and get you in trouble. Its gonna be unreliable and when it breaks its gonna cost a bloody fortune and really stop the fun. After a few years you’ll wanna trade her in for a faster model and repeat the cycle. But you won’t have the money.
Now Velma, shes like a Volvo V70R. Looks pretty plain. Hides in the crowd, even the police use them as they are smart and dependable, spacious trunk and pretty nippy in the right hands.
Now the thing you gotta watch with old Volvos is that they are lethal in the wrong hands. You gotta know how to work them and you always must remember that it’s gonna go UP in value as it gets older, long as you keep the mileage down and service it regular.
The police think your clever smart understated car is one of theirs undercover and when you get it in the right place you can really let her rip and show the tiger underneath. Trouble is with velma your gonna have to watch it every minute of the day. And its gonna get worse year by year. Everyone’s gonna want her. Its gonna get harder to fend off those increasing offers and sooner or later you’ll relent and sell it. You’ll never get another one and you’ll never find one as tidy, well maintained and fun as your first one…
Now your probably thinking “what the hell is victork2 blathering on about” and ill tell you… forget your ferrari, it will break your wallet, don’t bother with your volvo as it will break your heart.
Buy a scooby
I think the train that is this thread has derailed…off the side of a cliff, into a river, over a waterfall and to the bottom of a lake.
Calling whomever hands out those derail badges!
I drive a…Škoda.
