I winder if the duct made anything better....... Here's a couple more shots of it from different angles, which I took at Toowoomba a few years ago. Apparently they flew it once, briefly, but it was so unstable nobody wanted to try again. -- Mike Mackenzie (AVCOM Services) Brisbane, AUSTRALIA Remove "XYZ" from the "Reply to" address when responding by email. |

Please don't tell the neighbours. http://www.petersparrots.com http://www.insanevideoclips.com http://www.petersphotos.com Some believe that the world converting to the metric system would greatly simplify our measures. But look what would really happen to our old cliches: A miss is as good as 1.6 kilometers. Put your best 0.3 of a meter forward. Spare the 5.03 meters and spoil the child. Twenty-eight grams of prevention is worth 453 grams of cure. Give a man 2.5 centimeters and he'll take 1.6 kilometers. Peter Piper picked 8.8 liters of pickled peppers. |
