Dear Santa

I have been a very, very good boy. I haven't called anyone a **** (who
didn't desperately need it) and I have always washed behind my ears.

Please can I have one of these?

I promise not to bomb or strafe anyone who matters.

Love,

Nigel (aged 47 1/2).

 

There is a Cessna 150 on eBay which you could actually fly on your
licence and (more importantly) you could probably afford.
Item 180442803459
Low feedback private seller though, so I would want an independant survey
before parting with any money.

 

That's actually a 30. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sukhoi_Su-30

Single seater is a SU-27 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sukhoi_Su-27

 

Actual proof of the jet engineer's maxim - strap enough power to a
turtle and it will fly. It's an ugly fucker from some angles.

 

go on then, and try a Pugachev’s Cobra first time you take it out.

I'd pay money to see.

 

I didn't see "Will take broken V-Max in p/ex" anywhere in the ad.

Wonder how much? And how much per flying hour?

 

If you need to ask ......

 

Christ. You're only a bit older than me. What happened?

 

I suspect you're right: the maintenance issues are the killer.

"Both aircraft have freshly-overhauled (zero-time) airframes with
zero-time engines". I guess it depends on what "zero time" means: zero
time left or zero-time used?

 

Nitrous?

 

No thanks, I've just had some.

 

You'll need some more to keep that up

Bugger. Typo. That should have read 1100cc 100 bhp.

 

1100cc with 100hp? Is it a fiesta?

Fit big enough ailerons and elevators and it'd be no problem. The turtle
might not like it, but that's no reason not to do it.
