Gang, With all with Name Calling, Sniping & Hostility going on lately, I thought I'd do My best, to throw more fuel on the fire. :twisted:

Friendly hostility between the North & the South has been going on for years.
Here's a few old Andy Kaufman clips that support this scientific theory:

I'm sorry, but I find these clips somewhat amusing, especially since I'm a die-hard Yankee. The North will always make fun of the South & the South will always be angry at the North. I doubt this trend will end anytime soon. At least not in My lifetime & will continue for many more decades on the internet. I suspect this fact has ALOT to do with some folks getting angry at others & starting arguments on these public forums. Especially since Our "Locations" are frequently listed in Our Avitars. No matter what someone says, thier "location" can many times affect thier responses. That can be both good & bad. I sometimes wonder what effect would happen, if all "locations" were deleted from member's Avitars?? Would We all get along?? ....

Anyway, Just wondering which part of the country has the "best" selection & quality of Warbirds?? The North or the South?? East Coast or West Coast?? Try to be as honest & unbaised as possible, even if You don't live in that part of the country.... Especially the stinky South... :lol: Digger

That's all right Digger, just remember that along with all the recip hardware the South also has an F-4, F 100, A-4 and at least 3 Mig 21s ! :lol:

As one of the Southern boys here (who's great great great grandfather was killed in Pickett's Charge) I find those rather disgusting... but to show I have a sense of humor - here's a video a "friend" sent me... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4Y7mGCyrbg

My South African friend, who always tell us that he is from "the deep south" would probably say that the North of course has the best aircraft - seeing that all of the US is in the North!

The Land of Oz and New Zealand have some awesome stuff. I can't wait to get down there again and take in some airshows.

As for the Civil War stuff.... Hmmm....

Cheers,


David
