And I thought they put children into our planes. With four weeks they could not even walk, much less fly

Probably cheaper just to start a world war and purchase one from After war surplus.

you might get one with the 1033 program in US... not sure if the 1033 program is still operational..

A few weeks ago, Herself asked me to find something I'd like for my Christmas present.
My first suggestion got me hit. Apparently Tesco doesn't have a "Seven of Nine" aisle. 
I just showed her this. Guess what happened this time?

I have sat in the cockpit of a [IIRC replica] Spitfire. It just whispers gently to thy sole "Have me... have me..."

Probably quite reasonable (yes, I found the price.)
What made me laugh was "barn find". Really. Wow, I've got to start checking out the barns around here.

Hey, that's practically down the stret from me... If I wasn't spending so much money on my car, I'd consider buying it. LOL

The same guy is not only selling his Spitfire, but a lot more of his aircrafts. For example he is selling five (5!!!) Buchons that he has had in store since 1969. The Buchons last made their last public apperance in the movie "Battle for Britain". Sof if it's practically down the stret from you I'd consider seeing if there's a possibility to visit the collection before it's all sold of. I don't know if it's open to the public since it's a private collection, it has not been a secret at least and there's reports and photos in magazines.
Buchon = Spanish made Me-109 with Rolls Royce Merlin engine

5 of them? There is a thing now to take the Merlin out and replace it with Damiler-Benz engine (601?) the make a Bf109, I saw one them flying at airshow, fantastic! also I think Buchon is Spanish for Pigeon, why didn't they use a more aggressive name rather than a rat with wings?

They've got to be joking! Who in his right mind would pay $2.5 million for a plane with no bar cart or scantily clad bartendresses? That's just daft...

Hi All,
Bit of spleen venting here! I think I am going to get made redundant tomorrow... I think it's a case of my skill set not being in demand for the future of the firm. I am also pretty sure that my ability to conger up the test rig that was wanted in no time flat is part of it. I don't really think staying here much longer is on the cards either. I like parts of my Job just not all of it (common) but I have been thinking this for sometime. The last mess I was (am still partly) involved in has taught me the value emails so when you do 'thing' and 'thing' gets complained about ('I told you to do it differently to that!', 'No, you said do it like I have done it here, here is the email', retreat red faced!). What to do...
