Default Best Photo Caption Contest

So I was in the Dallas area on January 29th and was invited to participate what turned out to be a 10 ship flight which formed up over Hicks and went to Gainesville for lunch.


All the planes on the ramp.

The problem was, how do you move 15 people 10 miles down the road to eat lunch when there are only 2 Crown Vic's that the airport can lend us? Well, the first car made it out and we managed to get 8 people (over 200 lb avg wt) in the second Crown Vic. Jarhead was driving the second Car.

We almost made it to the Highway, when....


Oh Oh, Rollers.

Now, submit the best caption for:


Photo #1


Photo #2


Photo #3


I think everyone had a pretty good time! I know I did.

Photo 1 reminded me of a line from Smokey and the Bandit.

There's no way, no way that you came from my loins. Soon as I get home, first thing I'm gonna do is punch yo mamma in da mouth!

Didn't you fellas do your weight and balance before starting down the road in the car?


Yes, but we figured that if I can fly at 160 kts with 1700 lb RV on 180 HP I ought to be able to do 60 mph with a 4000 lb crown victoria on 400 HP.


You better recheck your math as the car is dragging on the ground.
