Postby Gaylord Focker » Mon Sep 28, 2009 8:13 am

Not to sure if this in the correct Heading but im sure if it really matters;

Would like to make a big shout out to THATCHMAN for being there and allowing CHOKIE and myself GAYLORD to use or abuse his trike for the COMP due to the unfortunate circumstances of our machines.

SO well done my BOOI for Winning the AIRMANSHIP AWARD you truly deserve it in every aspect of the meaning

ALL the best a BIG thank you from US

True friends are RARE i thank my lucky stars i have one

BIG SHOUT TO YOU

Thanks for the kind words but to be honest I would never lend my trike to just anybody. Both victims of the zero foot wingovers in Belfast are mates of mine and both are very capable pilots.

Having said that I would be lying if I said that I was not nervous with the Focker in my trike. As we all know he can be unpredictable at times. He did treat it will respect though and PLY took some tin at Numbi.

I was taking a video of Weedy landing in his gyro and there is some funny commentary in the backround going on while gaylord was flying my plane. Will see if I can get someone to post a link.

Question is was the deed done due to friendship or the continous nagging of the Focker (does he really have any friends). . . :wink:
