Crappy apologises for his lack of contribution to the NES over the past week, as your Cappy, dear Captain, has just sailed from Nova Scotia to Bermuda and had the heck beaten it of him by 3 north Atlantic weather systems over 4.5 days. And just like when he was an active and daring flyblown flyboy, he still attracts wind that is on the nose ....... like he is at times.

The Never Ending Story
in Aviation Laughter
Posted
Turbo's above post was obviously extremely prescient and had been noted by Albo's idea spotters.
"What if we look at giving them $600 million" said Chris Bowen "As long as they sign up for Net Zero and I get container full of Bird-of-Paradise feathers to sell."
"Gweat idea Chwis" wepweid Albo, and the west is histowy.
Now back to the NES.
