Yep!




Author got killed when he jumped from a plane and was thrown against it by a gust, a wing broke and the parachute failed to open.

Edit
sabredog has requested an Open House

Reg, I see you are offline now.
Should you want to ask for a validation vote (in the event that Noyade is not able to confirm) at a later time (I think I'll be offline this evening) by all means count me in.
Bye.

Thanks, HappyPass. It is rather a quiet day, and that's why I have not been hyperventilating in lack of confirmation . But I count you as one, and if another regular pops in and wants to second HappyPass, I'll post a challenge.

Guten abend Reg,

Been out all day and a real pain to log in this evening, so I may not be able to do that much! However, I'll second HP mate, this link does it for me: Parnall

As it's about a quarter to five for Graeme, I wouldn't expect him to show up for two or three hours yet, so I'm sure he would want and expect us to carry on

DFW C.V, maybe?

I don't expect this to be right, but if it is, Open House please.

Ton.

Not Italian, Graeme, although the quote is in Latin. Pay attention to the content, not form.

Reg, I think yours may be a Cant.36 ?

I'm giving up now , as this connection is hopeless, the longest it's stayed on is about two minutes and very frustrating. So open House please if correct!

G'day Graeme and thanks for your approval

Goodnight Gents

Yes, the connection (albeit lose) is to the Pope's Easter message Urbi et Orbi, To Cities And To The Countryside.

And it is not Cant.36, TC.

Good night, TC.

Graeme, I will soon turn in, so just score a kill to get it over with.

Edit:

OK guys, I'll give you 8 hours to sort this out.

Good night and good luck (I liked the movie).
