This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Hey Eric: Izzat an MG? Boy, you MUST be a masochist, a Brit car AND a big round engine in the same hangar!!! (Just funnin ya, I have a 71 BGT and a couple BSA's and Trumpets, so you can tell I must enjoy mental anguish and spending of cubic dollars)


Yes, it's an MG Midget, but it serves a very important purpose. I use it to reinforce "my theroy of aviation relativity", 10 years ago, when I bought my Bonanza, I thought it was brutually expensive to operate, then I bought the Yale and the T-6 and I realized that the Bonanza was nearly free to operate, so I bought the Skyraider and suddenly I could fly the Yale and the T-6 all I wanted because the were realitivly free to operate compared to the Skyraider. So, you see, if I didn't own the MG, I could never afford to fly the Spad. :roll:

Well spoken. Only someone used to the flow of dump-trucks full of hundred-dollar bills could understand the logic inherent in that statement.... <G> :shock:
