a) I don't post lots of pictures
b) I didn't lose an argument
c) You are a moron

(c) is valid if you believe your own
propaganda, which we both know is
false.

Or you are not a moron and don't
believe your own propaganda, which
you push for reasons of your own.

Feel free to post pictures of yourself
flying your nice airplanes in unusual
attitude at low altitudes.  Oh wait,
you can't because there aren't any,
and you are insanely jealous.

I am really enjoying this one. Lots of topics not much AvCanada bashing. Occasional mention of flying. Could use some more videos maybe the honey badger.

Vtoss, you don't seem to have a very high opinion of the Colonels flying skills so maybe you could tell us about your skills, experience or the lack of.

Where did I say that?

Well I guess I misread your posts.


As to his videos of him doing aerobatics a lot of us enjoy watching them.


If nothing else he has made it to the airshow circuit so his flying skills have to be above average wouldn't you agree?


I have actually met him at his home airport and found him to be very likable.

Here's a great one:

Fascinating.  And Jay's hair looks great!

Uh oh.  Jealous Canadians probably hate Jay Leno
whom I am guessing is a [b]VERY BAD PERSON[/b]:

That's going to make a lot of people up north unhappy.

That is a great one. I hoped to post the new Rogue One video where someone mixed Sabotage by The Beastie Boys. But it's unavailable on the YouTube probably being taken down by mean old Disney Corp.

You certainly have a hair fetish. What's your take on Burt Reynolds

Burt Reynolds has been bald since before 78%
of North America's current inhabitants were
conceived.

Sean Connery (best Bond, ever) wore a wig
for all of the Bond movies back in the 1960's.
As a small child, I cried for 6.4 days after I
learned that.

With great hair, comes great responsibility.

EDIT -- But seriously, I ran across Sean Connery
at a movie theater in the Bahamas, once.  Flew
the 421 down.  God, he looked old.  His wrinkles
had wrinkles.

I met Richard Petty on the ramp at the FBO at
Norfolk, VA.  A far more imposing figure, frankly.
Not sure anyone here knows who he is though.

There you go, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Yeah, never heard of number 43 and his Hemis. Ever go to Tacoma? There is this place called Lamay's American auto museum or similar. Worth a better part of a day. Has a great nascar section with all the great old time guys before and including Dale senior. Even my wife liked it. To be honest she liked it more than I did and I am more of a NHRA guy, but there were several great bikes and cars I liked too.

Fun simulators, I got to pretend to drive on Datona Speedway.

I have always been a fan of Junior Johnson.
They even made a movie about him, starring
that young Bridges fellow.

And Smokey Yunick, even though he's not
remembered for his driving, despite having
won the Daytona 500.

More names forgotten to history, but great
men nonetheless.

I wonder how many people know this:

[quote]When the Americans joined World War II, Yunick joined the Army Air Corps in 1941, piloting a B-17 Flying Fortress named "Smokey and his Firemen" on [b]more than 50 missions over Europe[/b][/quote]

They don't make them like that any more.

Guess who invented downforce?

Guess who was involved in the development
of the legendary Chevy small block?

I am sure that obnoxious, jealous, smug Canadians
would think of Smokey Yunick as an ignorant NASCAR
hillbilly, but he held [b]NINE[/b] patents.

How many patents do you have, jealous, smug Canadians?

Gordon Sinclair said it best.
