Hi Foz. That thing looks quite capable of taking care of itself. Hardly your average runabout. Shocked

I knew Wing Commander Ken Wallis in the old days when he was test flying the prototype of Little Nellie. He held the world altitude record for autogyros at one time. This was some time before he fitted the pod so he was sitting right out in the open. When he came down both he & the aircraft were dripping with icicles. Now that's what you call cold. Shocked

Mornin' Doug...!
Unfortunately all that armament on my Little Nellie is just for show. The rocket launchers are just cardboard toilet roll inserts... Embarrassed

...a bit like the imitation Gatling gun mounted on the handlebars of my bike just to warn Volvo drivers not to mess with me... Wink

...!
...bit of a problem trying to explain it to the local "Fuzz" tho'... Roll Eyes

Cheers Doug.... Grin
