CONTEST: TELL US YOUR FAVORITE STRIP!

[Stef]

We're having another contest! Tell us about your favorite strip and enter to win a Silver Chicken!

It is still our 10th anniversary year and we thought we should have another event to celebrate with you guys. So we decided to give away one of the last few remaining "Silver Chicken" coins that we had minted for this occasion and have another contest for you!

This one is an easy one and everybody gets one vote.

Simply tell us which one of our comic strips is your favorite and you’re automatically entered for the drawing of another Silver Chicken!

If you're not a member here and still want to participate, you can also post your favorite strip on our Chicken Wings Aviation Comic group page on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/groups/111395638897347/.

DEADLINE for your entries is FRIDAY next week, April 27th 2012!

Good luck!!

My definitive vote will go for strip 456 : Magnum P.I. marathon.

I still can remember the Hugues 500 colors and wonderful scenes of the Magnum series.
When someone speak about a Hughes 500 helicopter, this is the mental image I always have.

I got the same kind of mental image when someone speak about Bell 222, I cannot help seeing Airwolf (Supercopter for the European).
Probably watch too much TV series when i was younger.
I guess that it would be my color scheme If I end up owning a Hughes 500.

My vote goes to the one about pilot professionalism!

[Busdriver]

I have to go with kvdp_vliegt, I love it

[cotejy]

This contest is pure torture for me. How can you tell just one. The one of kvdp_vliegt would be on my top 5 list. The quick joke about "v" formation beeing longer on one side got me to spill cofee on my computer keyboard. 

If I must choose one, I must take it from the historical serie. Not sure it ever was on this site or if I got it from a book but the one that explain the first noise complain (mother of wright brothers complaining) is so good. OK, I have to choose one. Here it goes:

169  NOT IT!   Been there, done that!

This is really interesting so far! I won't name and names, but some of the strips are among my favorites but there were already a couple of strips mentioned which we even hesitated to post, because we thought they weren't good enough...

Well! Looking forward to more entries!

[Louis]

I'd say my favorite is #683 "Awesome new snowblower".

Then there's #758 "Itsy bitsy spider".

And #1134 "Skydivers".

New Forum member, but been a diehard fan for a few years since a fellow pilot friend of mine put me on to the strip. I look forward everyday to getting the strip... always puts a smile on my face and makes me thing back to my flying days!

So tough to pick, 324, 401, 465, 20, 52, the Chinook one... I could go on and on... I think though that my vote (at least today) goes to 324 - "Buzz the Tower" made me laugh and brought me back to my days in a 152 where I thought I was pretty special too....   ;-)

Cheers and all the best;
Eric

My favorite strip is the February 5th 2008 strip "No Ice". Chuck is flying the 172 and in the last frame it turns out snow is settling on the wings. It was such a shock when I got to the final frame that I snorted my coffee out my nose.

That's a comic!

[Rooster Cruiser]

Any of the "Chuck, is that you?" strips are my favorites!  I and a few others are attempting to turn that into a running gag on ATC frequencies.  Just the other day I listened to an FO mistakenly give his before landing passenger briefing on 121.5 in both English AND Spanish!  Sure enough, once he ended I keyed up my mike:  "Chuck, is that you?" was broadcast out over the south Texas countryside.   

I don't know how to access the archives, but my favorite series of strips ends with Chuck being intercepted over Washington DC by F16's and one of the fighter pilots has a sign that read, "Chuck, is that you?"  All Time Classic!

My other favorite would be when Chuck and Julio were bringing the Twin Otter into Santa Barbara, and when Approach asked for their position Chuck replied, "Approach, I am Chief Pilot at Roost Air".  "Chuck, is that you?" was ATC's response, natch!   

This week's strip ranks right up there too...

20 - awesome aerobatics

If not for the conflict of interest, I'd say my "Runway Ten" strip. 

But seriously, the running joke "Say Altitude" is classic Chuck.

This one: 2009-06-09-cw0372

CHUCK: Chuck to mysterious beautiful woman, requesting permission to land!
MB WOMAN: Whoa there buddy! Reduce speed to minimum approach speed!
CHUCK: Roger that! Why?
MB WOMAN: Because I'm just in the muiddle of a short-field take-off! Bye!
CHUCK: I think I'm in love.

I smile every time
