s there anything you can't do with duct tape?
During a private "fly-in" fishing excursion in the Alaskan wilderness, the chartered pilot and fishermen left a cooler and bait in the plane. And a bear smelled it. This is what he did to the plane.
The pilot used his radio and had another pilot bring him 2 new tires, 3 cases of duct tape, and a supply of sheet plastic. He patched the plane together, and FLEW IT HOME! ![]() ![]()

On my 911 it's 125 mph tape. Definitely not 130mph tape, though.

Mythbusters had a show about duct tape - they built a sail boat using duct tape, lifted a car with it as well. I have seen wallets, suits and even bikinis made of the stuff. Pretty cool...

When I lived in the Northeast, one of the states, it was either NJ or Delaware I think, wouldn't pass a car for inspection if it had visable rust. Everyone learned that if you duct taped over the rusts spots, that was acceptable...
