Title: Banner Tow
Post by: slimm50 on September 07, 2004, 09:29:25 AM

A friend and I went to the local small airstrip at lunchtime one day and arrived there just in time to catch this.....the suspense was intense...what would the banner read? Turn volume up to hear my friend exclaim....

I hate posts like this. I am an aviation nut so anything on aviation in the header will pretty much guarentee I will look at the post.

So you read it and it says nothing and then expects you to click on some link with no explaination.

I was expecting a picture of a tow plane or something.

If you want us to watch an avi then tell us what is in it first. As it is I will let someone else look first. Maybe they can post what is so great we all have to see it.

HABU, can you not open the link, or are you just lazy, or what? I figgerd if you watched the "very" short film it'd be sort of self explanitory. Didn't mean to piss ya off bud. When I tried to post a direct .avi it wouldn't take it at Picture Hanger, that's why the .zip file.  Chill, dude.:rolleyes:

Banner towers are always like that. We have 4 in our local airport, so I am used to watching their "straight up pick-ups" :)

I saw the avi. Very nice flying.  Why not say "hey check out this crazy pilot" so I know that the link is actually going to show some flying. Too many times I have clicked on an avi and gotten some stupid cartoon or dumb joke instead.

Nice camera work btw.

I used to tow baners on the weekends for RonJons Surf Shop in Coco Beach, except for pick ups, it sux, and those get boring too.
