Putting the buzz in buzzing the tower (Trade-A-Plane)
« on: December 11, 2007, 12:51:58 AM »
Hahaha, that was a great one, who came up with that? |:)\ Compared to the roar/bang of a Tomcat then a Skyhawk really does sound like a little buzzing bee, cool controller there ::rofl::
Btw, those were some funny looking characters in the cockpit, anyone from real life?

Plus the choice of a yellow colored plane for what looks to be a 152 or a 172, when ninety-something percent of them are white...

That a great one, is there an online archive somewhere of Chicken Wins comics that have been in trade-a-plane? I feel like I'm missing out

TAP has quite a nice collection and if you're quick and they keep up on their postings, you'll get all previously unpublished strips....

Nothing wrong with a nice brightly coloured Cessna, some friends of mine own this 175



At least it helps with "see and avoid..."

(On a cloudy day anyway ;-) )

And yep we are amused by the fact they own "ARRI" while we fly "TOMS".  Sadly "G-DICK" is alread registered as a hot air balloon or we could have a fun little flotilla!

As long as it's not pink or purple. Those are mean colours to paint an airplane

With a paint job like that, they should apply for "G-WHIZ"  ;D
