Re: [simpits-tech] To all - what do you guys think
They have shown his F16 flight twice now...if not more. First time I saw =
it. I was at my mate's... and that was a chance for them to realise what =
on earth I am trying to build. His commentary as always really make it =
sound like "Crykey what was that?!?". You oath to see his new Australian =
Quarranteen Advertisement for the government.=20
I figured the only way a normal Aussie bloke will ever get to fly in a =
F16 is to get really famous getting up close and personal with reptiles, =
then marry an American :) For some reason, crocodiles always sell good =
to the US. Last was Paul Hogan, now its Steve.=20
Erwin even went to the US ranger's training camp to lecture them about =
dealing with allegators in nature.
I assume the key to free ride in fighter jets if you are a civilian is =
to get famous. Mark Webber, an Australian F1 driver had a go with the =
RAAF Aerobatic demo team... who was that guy in that movie with Nichole =
Kidmen something Rougue... Went up in a RAF Tornado for... "CHARITY" =
Fund Raiser (WTF?!?).

Ok, that's it. I was just surfin' the TV when I decided to turn on =
the crocodile hunter. I flip it on and think "I must have hit the wings =
channel by accident" when I hear Steve Erwin grunting and hoopin' it up =
and he's in the back of an F-16. Somehow he scored a ride in viper and =
got to fly, pull 9G's and fire off a sidewinder. If I wrestle a =
crocodile, can I get a ride? Hell, I've got my own gear, I don't even =
need to use their stuff.
