In a senseless act of brutality typical of the AH Pro Hog allegiance I was attacked at the Museum of Flight in Seattle on Sunday by two members of the MAG.
I was merely pointing out to my wife(who has no opinion on Hog Cs in particular or Corsairs in general) that if you took 4 of those(indicates Hispano on Spit IX) and put them on there(indicates Hog D next to spitfire) that you would have a real dweeb pla……whamo..
No warning except a high pitched screech and 45 pounds of ferocity hit me round the knees. Close as I can figure out now he was hiding in the gun bays of the Corsair. He wasn’t alone either. His accomplice made sure that my wife could not come to my aid and explained to her what a “Luftwobble” is and the noble lineage of the colour blue.
Even subjected to such a dastardly sneak attack I still might have persevered against my assailant (now identified as Gman) But in trying to keep track of him as he turned tighter and tighter around my knees I hit my head on the hispano barrel from the Spit and the last thing I remember is the little guy jumping up on down on my chest screaming “Die Luftwobble scum!” and my wife saying how cute he was as his proud dad(Later identified as Ripsnort) beamed with pride.
<S> Rip and Gman! Thanks for the tour and I will be back when the new fighters show up. Next time I will bring my little guys to watch my back…
