After suggestions from 'Eno' and 'Patchz', I find myself going the other way

Perfect.

Though you did leave yourself wide open with the 'going the other way' statement. Consider yourself fortunate that I was able to resist. Roll Eyes

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

Yes, it usually happens while trying to get my foot out of my mouth. Roll Eyes

I can't help but imagine how cold those two must be. Grin

Definitely can't wait to see more of these from you.

Thanks. One of those 'nothing ventured, nothing gained' things. Patchz generated the idea.

WOW!and Brrrrrrrr

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

Excellent Dave...well done... Wink

I don't think folks realise just how cold it got for those lads during the Great War/World War One in those aeroplanes.

I remember freezing my own butt off in the early 50s in those old bugsmashers...did it make a man out of me...nope...I just put on two sets of red flannel longjohns with trap doors and two pair of woolen socks... Grin

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Seems it'd be easier to get your foot in and out of your mouth if you removed your teeth first - keep 'em in a glass of fizzy stuff overnight

That would require pliers and a lot of pain. The sixteen or so I have left are ~~original~~ default. Roll Eyes
