Just last night....somehow ended up with a mapping of clipboard which appeared when I toggled my views from highset to lowset....you can imagine the fun that was. 

Same thing as you...must have inadvertently mapped it when changing a setting.  Only cost me my life as I was bounced while heads down remapping controls over enemy territory:)

Seconds later, through the roar of the wind screaming past my canopy, comes the unmistakable sound of my radial engine sputtering to a halt, the propeller quickly slowing.

Even more exciting in RL. I was assisting at Fremont County Airport taking up sky divers in the C-45. Jerry had flipped to the aux tank in the nose on the way down and forgot. As we were climbing out with 9 jumpers in the back both engines cut out. I looked back and saw 9 backsides heading for the door! Jerry switched the selector lever and the motors started right back up in time to keep anyone from jumping early.

Sabre,

I'm sorry I missed the last frame.  I'm pleased to say that yours was not the dumbest thing I've seen in the Arabian Knights.  No matter what it's the moment of confession that is always the best for me.  I feel so clean and new afterwards.   :O

I have a chance to fly this Friday probably and it'd be a real pleasure to fly with someone who is also freshly dipped.  An appreciation for fine music and smoked brisket is also a big plus around here.

Glad you had fun,

 :salute

Sabre,

We enjoyed flying with you Friday night.  The FSO frame was fun with you.   In my first FSO, after many years out, I compressed a P-38G after the "Tally Ho" call and flew my airframe into the drink hard.  Aim High bother and we'll look for you on Friday!
