hey love the siggy evan.........

and the way i see it, you will die flying an ohka, but atleast you're cirtain to die heroically (unless you get shot down on the mothership), if you fly a Komet, you may servive, but if you die, which is much more likely, you haven't died heroically........

Hi everyone. I'm new to posting on this forum. Hope I can throw my two cents in. Interesting topic.. If one were talking "hoping to return", I would vote the Natter as the most dangerous. After firing your 24 rockets simultaneously your aircraft nose cone separates and a chute pops out of the tail. Hopefully you are jerked free to open your own chute. I don't know what the odds were, but it must have been pretty small.

Gray.

Hey, Gray.
Welcome. It might be a good idea to take plan_D's advice and get yourself a good feel (figuratively ) for everyone here. We have some very knowledgeable folks on site, and quite an array of personalities.

Hope you enjoy your stay.

Welcome Gray. Just watch yourself around nonskimmer, he takes "feel" to a new level...(ohmigod, did I say that out loud?!)

Just kidding, NS. There's quite a group of characters here. Don't be afraid to ask questions, to avoid duplication, it's always a good idea to use the search funtion of postings to see if a question has been asked before.

Enjoy your stay!

Hey... Im one of the characters....... I have the ONLY "Official" Moniker here :

Minister of WhoopAss...

If u spend a few hours browsing through some of the past topics, i think ull get a better feel of how things run here, and maybe educate urself to some of the attiudes/personalities/flamboyancy/history of our members here....

It will definatly make ur stay here alot more enjoyable...

OH, and FBJ, KrazyKanuck was banned dude...... He thought that ALL Americans shoulda been nuked by the Russians....

Thanks for the welcome everyone. Sorry to say there is no Great White where I'm from. There is Great Rain. I'm south of the 49th in Deep Cove Vancouver Island. Just lots of blue Pacific around here.

Gray.
