Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted July 18, 2015 Report Share Posted July 18, 2015 Well, Yes, of Course we read the manual, we are not idiots. So we have tried: -Tab A to fully the Slot B. -Vertical Folding evenly till the Click safety. -Not ground tipping for constructing stable. So now what? Ok, umm hummm. Got it...one second please. Guys, try "gripping the edge handle torque right left" Link to post Share on other sites

allardjd 1,853 Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Not a caption entry... I guess you guys know that's not really an F4. Look at the non-droopy horizontal stabilizers, the nose gear offset from the centerline, single tire on the nose strut and the fuselage bulge aft of the wing. The orientation of the main wheels to the strut doesn't look right either - offset inboard too much. I'm not sure what it is, but a Phantom it ain't... John Link to post Share on other sites

Andrew Godden 934 Posted July 28, 2015 Report Share Posted July 28, 2015 Guys, Apologies, I seemed to have let this go a little longer than intended. To those of you who recognised the aircraft was not a McDonnell Douglas F-4 'Phantom II', well done, you win a Kewpie doll. It is indeed, a Shenyang J-8, and congratulations to Matt for correctly indentifying it, you win the pink, stuffed elephant. You can claim your prizes by contacting the guy on the phone in the picture. Now, some fantastic captions and a number along the lines I would have sumitted, but remember I have a very black satirical sense of humour. In the end, it was close, but for sheer simplicity and exactly what I would have been thinking if I was that pilot, it goes to Brett with, "Pilot: If I leave this frikin country today, it will be one day to late.". Thanks everyone and over to you Brett. Cheers Andrew Link to post Share on other sites
