Only in Australia

Haha, that is awesome!

 

Some people have no sense of humor.

Sounds more like this was not his first trip to the pub that day .

 

Kinda what I was thinking.

"Barkeep! Get me a pint quick, I left the Cessna idling outside."


Maybe his wing was confiscated for FUI.

 

And knowing the Australian arm of my family it probably wasn't his last either.

Reminded me of the late P-38 pilot friend who trained in Nevada in P-39's. He told me that they landed on a road on which there was a good hamburger joint, had lunch and took off from the road to resume " training".

Don't give me a P-39
With engine mounted behind
She'll tumble and spin
And soon auger in
Don't give me a P-39
