ALL HAIL THE THREAD!!!!!!!!!!

[DuckofTindalos]

We always talk about the B-17 and how it could bring its crews back with half the plane blown to bits, but here's a couple of pictures that show other US aircraft that came home with big holes in them.

It's mostly caused by cheap, nasty beer. [:'(]

[:-]not beer.......malt liquor[:D]

Around these parts that's mostly a minority drink........

[niceguy2005]

For double bonus evil genius points....good at your local evil genius outlet...what planes are those?

I'm going to guess an Apache for the first photo. 

[DuckofTindalos]

Both planes are of the same type, and from the same unit.

P-47

Yup, both from the 359th FG.

I had forgotten ole Juggy had a slide-back cockpit.

[DuckofTindalos]

Up until the -D model, they did. Just like the P-51.

Evening chaps.

Gem, a bit of AC/DC news. The boys are hauling their old arse's out for a world tour this October in support of their new album!

First tour in seven years! If they wait seven years for the next one, Angus and Malcom are going to be going on-stage on zimmerframes [:'(]

I dunno if I like the bit about the album being a Wal-Mart exclusive. We don't have Wal-Mart here [:(]

Very nice, but the bit about the wal-mart exclusive don't worry. Wally world is evil.[;)]

Drat, if only I'd know that P-47 would be obvious. It's about the only single seat plane that would have a tail that large.

Yup. Early versions lacked the bubble canopy, which was what had me thinking Apache.

I'm sure iTunes must carry it....but maybe not.

It's brutal when the bands you idolized as a teen get old. I went to a Rush concert in 2002 or 2003. Nothing but balding middle aged men with a beer gut and it was promoted by a "classic rock" station...Rush!...Classic Rock?

Just got back from the gym.  I like to keep up on the news by listening to podcasts while I work out.  Was listening to MarketplaceMoney today.  Dear Thread!...people need to chill a little about the economy.  Seems like people are panicking...and doing really dumb things in the process.
