Is this the modern equivalent to a ghetto blaster outside his window?

Please describe the crash site...shuffler has been less than the standard on his SAPP landings recently. He is in danger of losing his multispeed blenders....

For anyone curious on an "explanation" - Shuffler recommended Glen Miller as music to fly to, and it is the best! While listening to some songs this one came up as the Play Next and had a thumbnail of a p38 :)

It was terrible! Looked like Hog sign. I mean to tell ya, we talking Row upon Row of Plowing/Rooting sign, strewn about a 1 acre field. The troublesome memories are The empty Tequila bottles! They were still sealed but the bottom of the bottle was gone. Did find a few Fingers that were recognizable(dos Dedos  :rofl) surely he doesnt use that Tequila :embarrassed: Not to mention all the poor Limes...burned almost to un-noticeable. I was amazed with how the Blender remained in 2 pieces(found the lid some time later). I have it listed on Ebay :neener: As far as I know, Shuffler didnt use any sort of mixer? His recipe must have been awesome/to die for🤣 but he took his secrets to his crash site! Selfish bastage :rofl

That is very concerning. A proper 38 pileit doesn't carry bottles of tequila, that is what drop tanks are for. unless he is supplying tequila to children in a third world country Shuffler has some egregious violations.

Two DTs... one for cuervo and one for leroux. The bottles were dropped around the wreck site by looters hunting 38 parts. Simple explanation.

That makes sense  :aok Visitors leave Limes at the site, as a memorial. I believe the dang Blender is haunted? I should have left it there, I guess :eek:

The blenders work best in the vicinity of a pair of Allisons.
