bouncebounce crunch Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 If your wife, hubby, girlfriend, boyfriend or business partner was an aeroplane what would they be? my wife= C130 - Hercules, many rescue missions for our kids and troop drop at pubs. my business partner= a kite, can't do much unless things are moving around him.

john stones 1 - Moderator Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Mine would be a free flight....fill her up with fuel, who knows where she'll end up John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan Reynolds LaserCraft Services Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Mine would be a miltary jet, always creeping up and frightening the life out of you when you least expect it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Cotsford Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Mine would have been a VietNam era Huey Cobra, a constant chattering that became part of the background, always buzzing round and ready to strike! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essjay Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I'm not married, but lady aquaintances I have known in the past I have treated like highly aerobatic aircraft. They will always try to head in their current direction, but with a bit of clever piloting can usually be brought back on track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanN Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Dangerous territory, chaps . I can only presume your other halves don't look in on here. If they do, and you haven't chosen your comparison wisely, the aircraft you may most require might be one of these ..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_B Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Mine is like the P-40 in the photo; old, temperamental.....well I think the picture explains the rest better than I can describe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Holland 2 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Mr B, love it! The present Mrs H, a J3 Cub. Could only just kill me if she really tried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vecchio Austriaco Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Extra 300. Sometimes difficult to start - but good looking and once running an excellent performer. VA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fredrum Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Mine's a Stuka - 'Screaming Death'. Or an F1D model. Once you wind her up, she goes on forever. It's a good thing I'm using an avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Carpenter Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Hi. Mine would be an EE Lightning ! One wrong word and goes vertical in a split second !!!😈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Hopkin Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Mine would be a cross between a U2 and an A10............. in constant surveillance then swooping down with all guns blazing..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon H Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 A Stampe i think. looks great, slightly alternative, nice sound (she sings) and generally not too complicated. On the flip side however, not that fast and tricky to handle if the wind is from the wrong direction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josip Vrandecic -Mes Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Honestly I never thought of it on that way, but that I think..... could be a DC-3 Dakota , to share food and everything needs such during the Cold War in Berlin.... p.s. If I do not answer for a while,this means then She turned into a Thunderbolt P-47 (dangerously armed)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin b Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I don't have a partner I do have a large workshop, where I can go when I want, for as long as I like. A collection of aircraft, where I can keep where I want and it doesn't matter if the car has a caster oil scent. I suppose that's some comfort Current favourite song ? Brad Paisley. You need a man around here My business partner is a bit like my trainer. Probably flies ok by itself, but if I take my fingers off the sticks - instant crash.

DCW Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 This is one of the best threads yet! Let's hope the ladies don't see it... My wife would be a Brequet 905 Fauvette. I was fortunate enough to have a half share in a 1/1 size version. With it's dolphin shaped fuselage, tapering wings, elegant 'V' tail and original color scheme, it just seemed to solicit for attention. The first time I flew it with it's sensitive controls, it scared the pants of me and at first I didn't go very far with it, but once I got to know it there was no holding me back. I didn't want to fly anything else... DW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 SWMBO = Doodlebug Drones on an on for hours, goes very quiet then blows up with tremendous force. Or should I say a Curtis Seagull. comes home from work, flaps around, poops over everyone and moves off upstairs. I really had to use my imagination there to keep it within the boundaries of this forum! Edited By Stevo on 28/08/2015 21:40:15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Cooper Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Mine would be one of those things where every detail is a complete bitch to live with. Fortunately mine flew away years ago and I never bothered to go and look for it. Happy days (now). B.C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Harris - Moderator Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Having been made north of Hadrian's finest work, there's a very limited choice for 'er indoors...so it has to be a Twin Pin (Scottish Aviation Pioneer) - hard working, dependable and very capable...drones on for hours and capable of flying up in the air in an instant!

kevin b Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 It would be nice to hear the lady forumites take on this, just for a balanced point of view. Following my last posting an ex ladyfriend has suddenly appeared out of the mists of time and is showing a determined interest. She would have been a Maltese Gladiator. Very attractive, hard working but noisy, and was always in the middle of trouble. Usually returning in need of attention. You may not hear from me now for a while. That's because I'm hiding. Not that I'm afraid or anything, but where's the cheese ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
