A lot of stuff in the woods by my house.






This one must have been impaled by that twig.

So, you have a piece trim, and it is long, so how to safely pack it, so the shipping monkeys don't bend it??

One way is to get a bicycle box, angle the trim piece in and load it with packing stuff,

The other way is this.





For a whopping $10 (which is less that buying the other packing material to fill a bike box & this won't have to be shipped oversized)

A few from the Festival of Speed yesterday. Unfortunately trackside access was blocked-off. The wankers make you sign a waiver then still keep you behind locked gates...jeez.

What kind of plane are you flying?

And tell me you didn't land this approach, it would have been a pretty wicked forward-slip unless my perception is off.
In the airline biz this is called a "shuttle approach." We also say sarcastically, "No sweat, you're high but at least you're fast."

We call them "Nose Bleed Arrivals"


No not a final picture, we were on a left crosswind for the turf runway on the right hand side.

As most approaches are too long and shallow.....this one looks pretty good to me. Give me a 150 and 40 degrees of flaps I'll land it on the number from this position.
