Pimp my plane!
« on: November 14, 2006, 04:31:48 PM »
Oh Em Gee!!!!!

I can already see the first time Chuck flies that:

Unidentified Pilot:  "Tower, Cessna Seven Five Seven Victor Whiskey.  I see an aircraft at my two-o'clock that appears to be on fire."
Tower:  "Chuck is that you?"

Hmmm....wonder if Julio is going to ban Chuck from the TV  ;D

good one! HA HA!

another thought came up earlier, which we can put in the strip but certainly in the animation should it ever happen:

Chuck puts in hydraulics like the homies have in their Impala's and gets the nosewheel to bounce off the ground while blasting his music out of his sub-woofers which he had to take the rear bench out for ... HA HA !!

 ;D :D

Hmm....
Too bad the flames wouldn't look right on a boxy CH801.
The exhaust, though... HMMMMmmmmm....

Make sure it has the newest stereo sytem out there, with mp3 and the whole bit (no very little about them)  And if there's not enough room you don't need radios anyway.  That's hat the tower light are for.
WOW I did that!

Btw I just thought of something. The jumping cars weren't they made using hydralic shocks from airplanes? I think it must be part of the system to raise/lower the gear. I wish I could create flash animations because I got a great idea from this strip, or at least part of an idea: Chuck comming down the taxi-way in the pimped plane with the plane hopping on it's nose-gear with a bass sound playing and neons under the wings, or maybe hopping on the landing strip and the controller counting each hop as a touch-and-go and thus increasing the bill. Like that aviation joke with a schoolplane using a military airport and then after some touch and goes they ask how many they plan on doing more because the bill was up to 10K USD :D

Btw, last I read then there are performance exhuasts out for Cessna's now and Tiger's although while they are longer than the std. exhuast then it's not quite as long, or big as the one in the drawing :D

Do you have those gadgets in USA that has a tilting stick that when moving back and fourth can make a text appear in the air? It could be cool to have such a system on the propeller to show an image there, like a picture of Chuck LOL That'd sure scare away the birds wouldn't it :D

Obviously whoever came up with the title for this video doesn't know his airplanes.

And that's why we all wear our seat belts during take-off and especially landing!

The sky and land joined for one brief moment, then we flew - the ground a receding memory for just a little while.

The BH Patrol, the Challenger's owner already found some pedals with bunny boot size heel cups for it.  Looks like big foot's plane!  ::)
