I wouldn't mind getting to know both of you Pilotette....

I'm not really a pilot myself... I'm a forklift operator...

Haha smooth...is that what you say to all the girls or did you just realise your usual "I'm a pilot" pickup wasn't going to work with a fellow pilot

Hahaha... no, I usually like to lead with the "I work at SeaWorld helping the baby penguins learn how to swim"

All else fails I tell them I'm on the dole and hope like hell they'll take pity on me!

Well if they knew what GA pilots earn, the "I'm a pilot" line would evoke pity too!
Anyway..to keep the thread on track..here are a couple of extremely easy ones!

Hmmm Dr come to think of it, it does look like it could be a balloon...but not in such close proximity to the city. As a clue you can just see the faint fuzz of a prop in the second photo...

Too many "http/" s in that url mate. Try posting again with only one set at the beginning.

Cheers.

Nice Cessna BTW.

This is a picture of what used to be my Cessna 150. I did the conversion myself and it took about 220 Hrs but since building an RV7 I reckon I could do it in about 80-100 Hrs now. I did the interior up as well.
Just thought somebody might be interested. The kit said 47Hrs
By the way, thanks for the tip.
