I'd like to have a MRAP. Like Jethro Bodine said. "Hey uncle Jed- we could sure do some mighty tall huntin' and fishin' with this rig!"



I wouldn't want to pay the fuel bill for one. Five miles per gallon is

horrible mileage.

about like a semi truck....

They weigh 40,000 pounds. There are probably some little bridges in
the old parts of town (where they might be shot at) that will not
carry that on 2 axles.

If you can't tote it with a helicopter, the light fighting forces don't
want it.

I was wishing a helicopter would come by and pull my airplane out of the tree. No such luck!

I was going to suggest that you get one of those R/C helicopters but, I
think you would just be putting so much hardware into the trees while
trying to retrieve the last thing you used to try and get the previous
thing out of the tree.

There was a guy there with a drone and camera. Look for the fuzzy white wing in the treetop at about
1:00 in the top center of the screen.

So have you analyzed what went wrong?

It's really important to do that.

Yeah, while flying the airplane and doing a nice shallow bank to come in for a landing, a 45' tree
jumped out in front of the airplane! The *******s are damn fast, I tell you.

Depth perception. I thought there was more room there than existed, and in beginner mode the climb
rate is shallow. Ergo a crash landing. I'm realizing this flying is not as easy as some of those
folks make it look.
