Of course you had to be careful that your 'tool' didn't get too close with the valve open or it could get sucked in. Ouch!

Bertie Hi John; Who would have thought that between you, Bertie, and my, total flying experience the three of us would end up here on Usenet discussing ****ing in a cup :-))))))))))))))))))) Dudley Wonder what they use in flight simulators?

Speaking of D.B. Cooper...

Karl "Dudley Henriques" wrote in message ... C J Campbell wrote: Seems some guy from Minnesota, Lyle Christansen, is convinced that his brother Kenny was D.B. Cooper. Kenny Christansen is in fact a dead ringer for Cooper, was an army paratrooper, bought a house in Buckley, WA, with cash that he never explained where it came from, and he worked for Northwest Airlines. On his deathbed he started to tell Lyle that there was something he had done that Lyle should know, but then he died. Kenny Christansen died in 1994 of cancer. The house is now a sign shop. Last I heard, some woman in Florida said she discovered the man she was married to for 20 years was Cooper. Don't know what ever happened to this story. My guess is that he went into one of those lakes that dot the countryside where he baled, got tangled up in the shrouds and drowned. I think someone found some of the money in a stream bed some time ago. This one will hang in there with some of the other unsolved mysteries of our time. Perhaps someday it will get solved :-) -- Dudley Henriques Ever seen the Amazon??? Or what beer made from rice will do to a wellused urinary tract? Bertie Ouch! That hurts. Pass me a cold one anyway! Getting on so one can't fly more than 15 minutes from a place to pee. Bertie Being alone in the Mustang has it's good points :-) Being in a C-130 with its own john had even better points. :-) You multi guys have all the goodies!! I have to admit, "Fat Albert" is one hell of an airplane :-)) The stand-up thing was okay, but the sit-down can was different. It was just a can with a garbage sack liner. The rule was, the first guy who used it had to take the garbage sack in for disposal. I have seen guys hold it for more than 14 hours. They know: if they go first then everybody else in the plane will use it. I think this is what they call "Military Intelligence" :-) -- Dudley Henriques |
