MrWally Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 So a month back or so my father (a former pilot) was at an air show and he meant this man named Arnie, a proud owner of what's called a "Breezy." So today, my father drove me down to this little airport about 20 minuntes away, and I was given the one in a lifetime chance of riding in this absolutely incredible aircraft. I brought my camera Pictures: (That's obviously not me in there, that's just Arnie) Note the amazing lack of canopy, floor, and safety straps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWally Posted September 3, 2006 Author Share Posted September 3, 2006 OMG ! That does look dangerous.... Very clever there coupes I actually found out, that while I was getting pictures of the guys in the Cub (the yellow plane) there were taking pictures of me! *happiness* I'll post those up tomorrow. And in all honesty, I wasn't able to fly this plane (although I could...to an extent) because it's considered an "experiemental aircraft" However, for my 13th birthday I was taken over to Hinkley airfield and I DID get to fly, it was one of the greatest times of my life. Pictures soon EDIT: Oh and yeah, you can get a pilot's license as young as fourteen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Andrew Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 .... That thing can actually fly? Looks fun, otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWally Posted September 3, 2006 Author Share Posted September 3, 2006 The man that was piloting the airplane has been flying them since the 70s. And he figures he goes up 300~400 times a year, therefore... that's over 10,000 rides basically. O_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BongoBob Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 F***in sweet wally. Get your pilots license Wally, you'll be able to score chicks left and right. Well, as long as you've got a plane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrWally Posted September 3, 2006 Author Share Posted September 3, 2006 What I REALLY wanna get is a motorized parasail. It's basically this propeller that you strap to your back, and has it's own mini engine and everything thing, and a parachute that you wear. So all it takes is about a 10 foot run and bam, your flying through the air at 30 mph. Coolest thing ever! And you don't need a license. However, they cost upwards to 4000 dollars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
