KCD Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Recently, while on an archeological expedition, we came across this relic in the depths of an uncharted South Pacific Lagoon. After a major salvage operation, we were able to determine that the pilot, presumably the world famous aviator of Royal descent, cheated death and made it safely to shore, as he has in so many other similar situations. This wonderful WW II relic has been restored to its predunking beauty and is now on display at the Sheboygan Aircraft museum in Wisconsin. Unfortunately, it is no longer airworthy!!!

liner simpilot Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 I enjoyed your wonderful story & showing of von peerhoven found T-6. I agree that von peerhoven should share any recent flights or at least appear. Kenny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTweak Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 It may no longer be AIRworthy, but is it still WATERworthy? I think that's going to be the burning, critical question, in this case :D Pat☺ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Had a thought...then there was the smell of something burning, and sparks, and then a big fire, and then the lights went out! I guess I better not do that again! Sgt, USMC, 10 years proud service, Inactive reserve now :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azzaro Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I feel it only fair to defend the Great Airman during His mysterious absence. I wont... But I feel I should. :rolleyes: -- Bob [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] i7-7700 3.6GHz / GTX1660 6GB / 32GB RAM / 49" Samsung CHG90 / WIN10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhantomTweak Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Jan is doing just fine Guys , he has had some major computer issues as of late ... Mike Thanks Mike. We appreciate the info. Just curious: His computer issues don't have anything to do with him trying to cool his PC by throwing it in the water someplace, or maybe trying to fill the case with water? Just wondering. He seems to have greater affinity to water than a mermaid! :D :D Pat☺ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Had a thought...then there was the smell of something burning, and sparks, and then a big fire, and then the lights went out!

KCD Posted May 23, 2017 Author Share Posted May 23, 2017 Miss you? Not really, it was more the outrageous paint jobs and the splash downs that were missed. Now that you are back, we expect more of each! And, by the way, restrict your nose punches to Adam and Bob; they seem to be the most worthy based on their content.
