And I bet you cant wait.... :-).


It'll be like Christmas in (insert month of first operational re-engined
BUFF
arriving here). The proposal will also give us an upgraded avionics, which
will
be worth as much to the average crewdog as the engines themselves.

Consider it a ten year life extension, in 2030.

At the rate they're going, you could be frozen for a thousand years,
wake up, and the only thing that you'll recognize will be made by
Boeing...

we had to keep them up to spec or they'd get cranky..."

The thing that amzes me is a couple guys designed it in a hotel room
over a weekend. (Obviously they didn't do all the detail work but
still)

All aircraft and aircraft systems begin as napkin drawings.

OK.

But that's just their entrapment plan.

After the invaders have landed, they wheel out Paul Hogan and Steve
Irwin.

"G'day mate!" they chorus in, taking their cork hats away to reveal
their
'bits'...

"RUN AWAY!" scream the former invading party...

And if that doesn't work there's always Yahoo Serious being held back in
strategic reserve...

There are some weapons too horrible to ever deploy.

Fair enough, perhaps I should have
clarified.......................but it's not like a nation is going
to have heaps of aircraft without a decent population.

Could they have more with an indecent population?

They wouldn't need any if they were all indecent. No bugger would try
and invade !

NUDE AUSTRALIANS - the ultimate deterrant against invasion...

God Almighty! Bronwyn Bishop nude! Just the thought of it has me reaching

again, how about Nicole Kidman nude. mmmmmmmmm.

I have just such a picture.


Considering how off topic it is, and that Nicole isn't really Australian, I
can't post it on any of the aviation groups.

What's this auto-rudder bit. In my years on the 757 with the RB-211's
there was no such thing.


Hmm, according to Boeing's literature it's installed on 757s???

Not unless it was since I retired.

So anybody find out what the new 8 are? My bet is they're F-404s.
