DWD

I taped the tail back together on a 0-1 (Bird Dog) and we flew the
bird back from a Special Forces Camp to Home Plate in 1968.

Great stuff. Wouldn't be without it.

If anyone takes of in a plane that needs to be repaired this
armchair pilot and lurker says you are dumber than a
sack of hammers and a prime candidate for the darwin award.


That depends on the repair. Would you take off in a rental plane with a
badly-fit door seal that makes a whistling noise? What about one with a

U/S
ADF when you're flying VFR? Neither one of those is Darwin material or a
violation of regs (since the aircraft is still airworthy).


All the best,

What about duct tape on a load bearing structure?
