That was actually fairly minor muppetry compared to some of the crap I heard Sunday morning while trying to find out what happened with the TCat. From some reports you'd think the entire ramp went up in flames.

The only bit of good info I got was that Steve Barber made a temp fix with another switch which wasn't the correct one but was ok at the time.

Hoperfully it should be home later this afternoon & then the new switch can be fitted before the weekend. 8)

Steve would know. The CAF guys were all over it after the show on Saturday. Did anyone notice the walkers and the golf cart shadowing the Tigercat all the way to G3 taxiway? They were making sure that all was well.

Jeeze, those muppets at "fencecheck" really don't have a clue do they?. I bet Clay will be thrilled to discover that not only does he now own Joes F7F, but he also owns a couple of POF's Chino birds.... :wink:


I'm proud to be called a "muppet"...since I hang out at "fencecheck" quite a bit myself....I guess I qualify...

:roll: :roll:
