Title: "Director Of Recreational Kitplanes" ROFL
Post by: Frank N. O. on May 17, 2006, 07:51:52 PM
LOL, that was such a great one! This one could almost be another one in the priceless-series:
Price of buying a T-shirt: 10USD
Getting a T-shirt printed with a acronym title: 5USD
The look on the Chuck's face when he sees it: Priceless!

Ok not the best one but I've had a rough day but I wanted to try and give something abd anyway.

Great joke and great drawing  |:)\
Looking forward to when my ordered Chicken Wings book arrives in the mailbox :)

There is actually a really funny story behind it:

I was at a morning briefing in WMC (fireflyer might have been there as well actually) and they had the "ATF" in town. when working with the BLM "ATF" means "aerial task force" (I know they borrowed ATF from another unit, but, oh well...) It's a new concept where they pull an air attack and a few tankers plus a helicopter together to form a firefighting mega machine.

All these guys wore brand new blue shirts with "ATF" written on them on the back in big yellow letters.

Anyways,
at the briefing, after a few arguments, the aviation manager there suggested since ATF is already taken, they should call this force "aerial support squadron" . . . ;)
Of course we couldn't spell that out and keep our PG-13 rating :D :D :D

Hm, coming to think of it, what's so bad about donkeys?  ;D

I think  A erial  S upport  S quadron would be a good name for them fire stealing goons----I some flight time due to their heavy-handed approach on stealing initial attack from Brent and I.

I just have to take something good away from those briefings other than the usual "be really heads-up out there" and "guard against complacency"  ;)

ATF = Authority Tied to a Fool

FBI = Friendly But Ignorant

Or there is "Be Safe out there" and "Lets all have an accident free day"
