After this capture, I spooled up and fired the catapult - took off like a charm (which I hadn't expected)

w00t! But does it have the little legs?

[redsniper]

and...ah...what engine is this in?

[diamondgeezer]

X-Plane 6.7

[Rictor]

excuse my ignorance, but what game is that? And whats the significance of that picture?

edit: ok, its the X-Plane engine. But whats important about the picture?

[diamondgeezer]

You know what Thunderbirds is, right? And you know what an aircraft carrier is I assume. Thus... we have Thunderbird 2 on an aircraft carrier.

That crappy show with the clay people they show at like 2am? Or maybe you're talking about some advanced military jet?

[diamondgeezer]

OK, you're doing this on purpose

[Unknown Target]

does that look like an advanced military jet to you?

:duh:

bah, is that supposed to sarcastic? I don't even know. It does looks weird, which often times mean advanced. But maybe its too wierd, in which case its from the show. But I never knew the show was so popular as to be common knowledge

ahhh its all so confusing

BTW I'm not doing this on purpose. I really am that stupid..

Clay people? What are you smoking?

Ooo, that line is sig material

[Rictor]

No! No need for that, uhm....I was just kidding, ofcourse I know what it is. I was just trying to see if you knew what it was...

As for the clay people remark, you know like clay animation ala Wallace and Gromit. Thunderbirds is also a clay animation show about some 50s US spy people..

edit: Ok, looked it up. See, it WAS the clay people. How the hell does such a crappy show get so popular?

Petrarch: ofcourse! how could such a crucial detail slip my mind? You seriously watch that? Do you watch it drunk, and then it all seems funny or what? I mean, even camp has its limits:D

[Petrarch of the VBB]

Thunderbirds was never claymation, it was puppetry.

[Knight Templar]

Jesus, my dad would flip if he saw this...

[Petrarch of the VBB]

I have one thing to say.

"Yes, b'lady."

[diamondgeezer]

LMFAO

[CP5670]

btw what's that little thing in the sky?

[diamondgeezer]

Would you believe me if I said it was the Mysterons?

Actually that tells me the catapult is ready to fire.. and fire it I did. I did actually get TB2 up and flying on a true vertical takeoff once, but I seem to have lost the knack.

Another X-Plane favourite is the B-52 drop. You're supposed to drop off the B-52's wing in an X-15, but I've done it in the Wright Flyer, a Steinway Grand Piano and a B-52

Does this give us an idea what you'll do next: Captain Scarlet in HL2?
