Where’s the PC brigade when someone mentions Taff.Mick or any other term that isn’t aimed at a person of colour, one rule for all or none at all.As long as it is between friends as in Prince Charles case and is accepted by both parties in friendship whose buisness is it what they call each other?.

“Everything but the flak” by Martin Caidin

Bandit’s at 12 O’Clock

“Great balls of fire”

poor guy not a nice way to go

Your thinking of his bimbo/bogan girlfriend that’s the imbecile. The going back down bit would require some guts, trouble is most of those crusty demon type, tatoo wearing, earing infested idjuts are druged up to the eyeballs when they ride.

Why is she an imbecile ?

And i doubt very much if anyone could have executed this stunt while drugged upto the eyeball wether they were infested with tattoos and earings or not
More likely brave/foolhardy and crazy but idiot i think not. I for one enjoyed the spectacle.

Found this film of the big bunny,on the ground and in flight with interior footage of the gadgets and air Bunnies

According to the text

A regular DC-9 jetliner can carry 115 passengers; Hefner’s will seat 50 and sleep 15—or maybe 16, if there are two in the elliptical bed in Hef’s own compartment. The compartment, which also boasts a stereo console, a movie screen and a step-down Roman bath, is reached through a special entrance in the underside of the plane.

Near the end of the clip you see the Big Bunny in flight at night with the illuminated tail

From two of the greatest films ever

Life of Brian

Brian Cohen “Ocelot spleens ge’t e’m while their hot”

Monty python and the holy grail

John Cleese [as peseant] “she turned me into a newt…pause…I got better”

And the greatest comedy film of all time

Airplane!

Doctor “we need to get these people to a hospital”

Pilot “Hospital what is it?”

Doctor “It’s a big building with windows but that’s not important right now”

Sheer class:)

Gone in 60 Seconds [Original]

Not the best acted and with limited plot but the better car chase is better than the remake
BTW if you are into cars and if you watch this film you must be spot the mk1 Cortina and Austin 1300 van de plas getting smacked and an honourable mention to the mk1 Ford Capri seen twice during the chase aaaah nostalgia!!

Just finished Red ball in the sky by Charles F Blair. Read it years ago and just recently obtained a nother copy.Classic tale of adventure flying in the forties and fifties concentrating on the authors flight across the north pole in a P-51B mustang called Excalibur 3 now on static display in Washington’s Air and Space.

Next on the pile is Forever Flying . Bob Hoovers autobiography .Should be interesting.
