Nice early moring flight along the coast,
OPPS! that's a strange place for a board
walk, missed it though. Grin

...

Well! here's the marina, look at all those people!
Better go under it, don't want to scare anyone. Roll Eyes

...

Here we go! Shocked

...

Darn it!!! Prop Strike!!! Killed the engines!!!

...

Get some hight, try to restart. Well that didn't
work. ???

...

Look around here, well, half the gauges don't  work,
and I wish the other half didn't Tongue
No Hyd. pressure= no landing gear!
275', 175knts. I can go about TWO MILES!
Look about for a landing spot, nice beach
Check equipment, Fire extinguisher, whats that
tag say? "Use before Aug. 1945", Oh well,
Half a Dr. Pepper, one Peanutbutter and jelly
sandwich, two smokes and one Free airplane
wash coupon!!! May need that! Wink

...

Soft and easy 8)

...

I think I'll just sit here and eat my sandwich, and
pretend I planned it this way, besides Ozzy's going
to try this stupid stunt in a 747 later. He should be
landing along here some where shortly.
See what's on the radio,
%Wish they al.l.l.l could be.e.e. California
girls.s.s.s.

As for waiting for Ozzy....you'll probably find him under one of those trees laying in a hammock sipping on a  fruity drink!!  Wink


PS: Did the fire extinguisher work?  Grin
