The hour's approaching to give it your best,
and you've got to reach your prime
That's when you need to put yourself to the test,
and show us a passage of time

We're gonna need a montage! MONTAGE!
Ooh, it takes a montage! MONTAGE!

Show a lot of things happening at once,
remind everyone of what's going on!
And with every shot show a little improvement,
to show it all would take too long!

That's called a montage! MONTAGE!
Ooh, we want a montage! MONTAGE!

In anything that we want to go,
from just a beginner to a pro
We need a montage! MONTAGE!
Even Rocky had a montage! MONTAGE!

MONTAGE!

MONTAGE!

Anything that we want to go,
from just a beginner to a pro
We need a montage! MONTAGE!
Ooh, it takes a montage! MONTAGE!

Always fade out in a montage
If you fade out it seems like more time has a passed in a montage
Montage

"Crikey, sir. I'm looking forward to today. Up diddly up, down diddly down, whoops, poop, twiddly dee - decent scrap with the fiendish Red Baron - bit of a jolly old crash landing behind enemy lines - capture, torture, escape, and then back home in time for tea and medals."

Irishmen singing about whaling, that's kind of ironic. That's like quakers singing about drinking.

9:37 and 10:08 by my reckoning.

Yes, that's about what it looks like from AH's 202.

What a lovely plane that was.

You are a very good shot!

Are you flying with the 7.62s, or just the 12.7s?

What are your convergence settings?

I very rarely take the 7.62s. Convergance is set at 650. Not that good of a shot, I can only hit what I want at very close range. But thanks.

Appreciate the advice.  I fly the 2x12.7 setting just for fun, the .30s didn't seem to make much of a difference.  I'm a worse shot than you, so I'll stick with 200 convergence.

Great thread for people who appreciate an artistic paint job.
