Jahled Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 I'm concerned at the speed that plane was put together. Seriously, excellent linkage! Do you know there's an Apachee helicopter on sale on Ebay at the moment? I'll try and find a link.... wanders off... http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif

DarthTex Posted March 22, 2006 Author Posted March 22, 2006 How much is that in CSA money? (CSA = Confederate States of America) My questions would be: Who was the previous owner and what is the damage from the previous mission?Does it come with armaments? If so, live or dummy? If not, why not?What does "civilian configuration" mean? Stripped down?What OEM equipment has been removed?Will you provide delivery? Finally, after years of hard work I am the Supreme Sith Warlord! Muwhahahaha!! What?? What do you mean "there's only two of us"?

At any rate, how much is that in Florida dollars (I actually have one of those really ancient Florida dollars, believe it or not) 12/14/07Nu kyr'adyc, shi taab'echaaj'la Not gone, merely marching far away

Krytos Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Excellent find Tex I kind of agree with Jahled though, maybe they're doing it too quick. Granted we didn't see everything going on, but there didn't seem to be much in the form of quality control and testing with exception of the guy in the pilot's seat (first vid - yet to watch second) testing the hydrolics http://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://img152.imageshack.us/img152/1333/3dartistbanneranimationws1.gifhttp://img154.imageshack.us/img154/4026/rebellionbannerdi2.gif
Mitth_raw_nuruodo Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 You can look at this one of two ways. 1. There were a LOT of parts of the construction process left out. 2. If you don't trust the process, don't fly w/ an airline that uses Airbus planes. Chaos, Panic, Disorder, Destruction.....My work here is done.

If you don't trust the process, don't fly w/ an airline that uses Airbus planes. This isn't some evil scheme to thwart Airbus in favor of Boeing, is it?
Mitth_raw_nuruodo Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 I'm looking at it as option 1. Those vids don't show us the whole process and the planes are completely safe. I hold no preference either way. Chaos, Panic, Disorder, Destruction.....My work here is done. Grand AKmiralCommander-in-Chief of BEAK Forces(CINCBEAK) BEAK Imperium"To BEAK is Divine!"
Mad78 Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Very interessting vids.

Jahled Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Nah! Me neither, not as if i've got anywhere to put it. http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif
Mitth_raw_nuruodo Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 If I had the money to buy the Apache I would be going to a school that had an Aerospace program.
