Stupidist (est ?)
Hmmmmm lets see… ah yes..
5 up on my old 550 Honda coming back from the pub one night !. 1 on the tank, 3 squeezed on the seat and 1 on the back rack….and we only had one helemt between the 5 of us.
Riding across the Yorkshire Mooors on a bike holiday without my helmet on. Stopped at the end of the moor and for some reason had a funny feeling the split link on the bike’s final drive chain was missing. Had a look and it was…missing !!!!. How that chain never came off, I will never know.
There are other times that can normally be described as a ‘High Puckered Sphincter’ content type of event, but dont want the missus to find out.
Embarrassing, yeah I’ve had a few.
Dropped the same 550 in front of a load of girlies I was trying to be cool in front of. Made a hell of a clang as it went down. didn’t know if I could pick it up cos I hadn’t tried before. Got it up okay, then started up and went to pull away and promptly stalled it cos I was trying to change gear with the rear brake !!!(I was a bit shaken up…honest)
Playing cool dude on my Harley a few months ago whilst in Akrotiri, saw this drop dead gorgeous girl (pretty enough to make a Bishop kick a stained glass window in !) and was so busy I didnt see the speed ramp….or the puddle just behind it. Hit the ramp …which got my attention back straight away,,,then went through the puddle. Ever seen a bike with a bow wave ?..chuffing water went everywhere, and it wasnt clean. I was wearing an open faced helmet and had a wash then !. The Bike looked like I’d just finished the Paris Dakar rally during a monsoon. What could I do in that situation except look dead ahead and prtetend it didnt happen and piddle off round the corner a bit quick !. Took me most of the following day to get it back to its usuall pristine shine.
here ya go !
here ya go !

Helicopters dont fly…they are so ugly the Earth repels them !
Only joking,…I’d love a wessex in the front Garden !!! ~(dont think the missus would tho’ !)

Simple…Flare’s went out of fashion years ago !. ha ha ha
Dunno mate, I’m not aware of any plane that is purposely planted on the ground nose wheel first, it goes against all the rules for a safe arrival I would have thought !
With the airframe pointing down, you would not get any aerodynamic braking effect, you would have a severe lack of lift and your approach and touch down speed would be higher than a ‘conventional’ arrival.
It’s not as though its going to hit the tail on landing is it ? or do they ‘flare’ late ?
I’ll shut up and leave it to our ‘heavy’ drivers to come up with an answer
Nice piccie by the way !
LOL…(spelt backwards of course !)

Yes…perhaps it was a bit foolish to think I could launch my 1:1 scale madel out of the bedroom window…at least the missus is happy now !….me?…I’m ‘Fury’us !
