@gere_isaiah @TheCinesthetic It is a shadow… of a two-seat Super Hornet aircraft.
Maverick was flying a single seater Classic Hornet in all the exterior shots. Whoops!

@RichardCheek19 @TheOnlyDSC It’s just wet footprints on timber decking. People going from the pool to the bar leave tracks.

@DanIlinca2 @CcibChris Agree about the G-91. However, there was a Tornado Air Defence Variant that gives the overall design “fighter” cred.
AMX was another ground attack machine so not a fighter as such.
I guess any design that could mount Sidewinders or similar could be considered a fighter of sorts.

[Evan Yates @EvanYatesNZ]

@DanIlinca2 @CcibChris Hawk, Jaguar, and Alpha Jet weren’t fighters.
Folland Gnat is a genuine omission.

@XTOTL Just went to a street-art exhibition called “The Outsiders” in Melbourne (think Banksy and Adnate). I reckon your style of work would fit right in. Have you thought about doing work for exhibition?

@GayMaxine @michaelwoodnz Not defending him, but that Landrover is pre-1965. It doesn’t need to have seatbelts. Also, the grounds of parliament aren’t a public road so a lot of road rules don’t apply.
When Shane Ardern did it on a tractor, he could say it was part of a protest. This is just a dumb stunt.

@Stuarty771 @CcibChris Important extra fact is that the shockwave occurs at supersonic speeds. That is why the wingtips were adjustable. At subsonic speeds there was no shockwave to capture.

@maurajbg I can see one with my name on it. Ask him to put it aside for me… 🤣

@nothatpaulallen @PaulBrislen Wasn’t it his “trusty fruit knife”?

@atomicarchive The variation reply to “Six turning, four burning” is apparently, “Two turning, two burning, two smoking, two choking, two missing altogether”
Apparently the B-36 wasn’t a paragon of reliability.

@ChowdahHill Whatever happened to bully beef, hard tack, and weevil biscuits?
That’s the OG naval diet isn’t it?

@teddipasketty @AndrewDickson13 @HMilneJ Nauru is a bit further off to the left of this image.
Closest recognisable nation to the centre is probably Tahiti.

@1NewsNZ I think he is being disingenuous when he says, “give us a place to do our skids”. Surely doing it *illegally* is part of the thrill.

@whaeavee Have you got one of those little crank-handle thread-winder thingies? My wife has one for her embroidery thread. Apparently there is a schism. There are those who say that winding onto cards can crease the thread, and those who do it anyway for tangle-free storage.

[Evan Yates @EvanYatesNZ]

@PaulBrislen Of course I know their names. There’s “Big Fella”, “Chief”, and “The Machine”.

@DeeBeeBeez @bIockhousebay Anniversaries that end in a zero (10, 20, 30, 40, 50) are more “precious” than those that end in a five.
