[Crazy]

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

you SO didn't make that up........................

 

[bronzewhaler82]

It does look like its ditchin' but the giveaway is that the crew are still onboard...you can see the flight engineer sitting in his turret looking quite happy

 

[cheddar cheese]

i know but it cracks me up every time

 

[cheddar cheese]

wow, you must have good eyes, i cant se him

 

[bronzewhaler82]

well i can't really see if hes happy or not but he is there, i think i can see a pilot too...

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

ah! pehaps they were dummies as this was a crash test of what would happen when the plane ditched?

 

[cheddar cheese]

maybe its flying upside down and what you see as the sea is actually the sky 8)

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

both very good theories

 

[bronzewhaler82]

Yes...very good but very unlikely methinks...

 

[bronzewhaler82]

Yes...very good but very unlikely methinks... Perhaps its been captured by the Germans and they couldn't work out the strange American controls and they're about to crash into the sea?

 

[cheddar cheese]

forgive me for stating the obvious, burt perhaps they are actually about to ditch and that was the last photo taken of it in one piece 8)

 

[bronzewhaler82]

I'm sure Lanc will be very upset to hear that the poor B-17 didn't survive....why does he hate B-17's so much anyway?

 

[cheddar cheese]

im not sure maybe because its american, i dont really know its a conspiracy......

 

[bronzewhaler82]

Oh well, we'll have to ask him!

 

[cheddar cheese]

yes we will ill leave that up to you

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

it's not that i hate the B-17, it's merely my opinion that the lancaster was better, i mean, was their any evidece i was happy that the B-17 is ditching? why do you all steriotype me?

 

[bronzewhaler82]

We don't stereotype you mate - its just the evidence is so overwhealming!

 

[cheddar cheese]

you dont hate the b-17 lanc? ive never heard a lie so big, in some forums comments like "the b-17 is shit" were not uncommon 8) and we all know youre happy that its ditching, i bet youre sitting at home quietly smirking....

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

ok then C.C., i challenge you to find a time when i said "the B-17 is two bob bit [cockney rhyming slang]", go on.........................
