Y'all do realize you aren't actually moving?

Then what's with these blackouts I keep getting?


Eh, I've gotten up to ~mach 1.5, nosedive in a 163... Tried it in a 262 but it's wings didn't like it much.  :devil

need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the
WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

~70 mph with nothing but two composite planks on my feet between me and my maker.  Nothing like a good downhill race to get your blood pumping.  You guys can keep your fancy planes and cars.    ;)

Didn't do it myself, but I saw Pannono going Mach 3.98 to report me to Skuzzy.

... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB

'55 Chevy SB 400 w/ 115 hp squeeze
No roll cage, got kicked off the track after that full pass on the squeeze....LOL.

Sorry, I already posted my F16 ride, but Strip started the 1/4 mile stuff.  :D
