alright a convert. Welcome to the club Mini.

Now...only 4000 more to go...... 😀

Take it easy there MINI, too much time in the Sun can make a guy go delirious and imagine things .... 😀 😀

Ya OK, I admit, they do look good, but those darn rotors (3???) still go backwards.... MAGGIE, can I order one with either 2 or 4 blades that spin correctly ?

 

[GoldMember]

Backward blade turnin', made outa fiberglass sissy machine! 😛

 

[407 Driver]

note to self...... put Goldmember on the Christmas list, he sounds like a good think'n kinda guy ! 😀

 

[MagSeal]

I thought the 407's were made out of quite a bit of fibre de glass now Mr Goldmember.

As for 407D's request, I think if we put the fuel into the turbine from the back, everything should spin backwards.....I think. :blink:

To solve the numerical blade problem, we could install a vortex Bi-directional sun jammer and this would effectively increase the axial co-efficient of the gamma rays from the sun, ensuring that your retina actually see's an even number of blades, unless you're flying in the dark. We don't have the technology stolen from the Bell/Agusta/Boeing/EH Industries consortium yet. They have effectively shut out all of our spies at this time due to the lingering rumour that Robinson is coming out with an extended version of the R22 with a rubberband powered fan in tail assembly.

after reading your last paragraph MAG, I'm guessing some shade is in order for you too !

I don't recomend that fuel idea either MAG, tried it once in the Battlestar, things got hot, and ugly quite quickly. Took darn near 6 weeks to grow them eyebrows back :blink: :blink:

 

[T-rex]

Ya,

don't break the windshield either, its about a three day job at best, nice fly-toy though!

 

[MagSeal]

i heard there is a new adhesive for the windsheild, and possibly a new fastening system in the works to solve that problem. If you dang pilots would land them smoothly it never would happen in the first place :angry:

 

[407 Driver]

ONE MORE post MAG and you're at 500 , Just DO IT !!!! 😀 😀

Go Mag GO

 

[MagSeal]

I'm afraid...this is new territory for me...I was hoping to hold off the 'senior' status until I hit 65 at least.

Can we go back and count my 500 hundred posts and see what my percentage is for 'nice posts' and 'not so nice posts'???
I'm curious to see if I've maintained the 50/50 average I had hoped for, so that I don't seem biased towards the good or evil in the world. 😀

 

[GoldMember]

Hey Mag,

The Bell fibre de glass is much stronger compared to the EC variety due to EC's three-bladed high freq vibe weakening the basic molecular structure of the glass. Also, because EC installs blades upside down, they rotate against the natural rotation of the earth and thus contribute to the unbalancing of the universe. 😀

GoldMember (or should that be Austin Powers ) what happened to Dr. Evil?

:elvis: :cop: :elvis: :cop: :elvis:

 

[GoldMember]

Elvis,

I'm in disguise baby, yeah! Dr. Evil will no longer be a problem as he has gone to work for Eurocopter.

Don't tell Me it's Maggie. :elvis:
