zippyt Sunday Apr 20 08:30 PM Oh THAT would just SUCK !!!! BeltNah Sunday Apr 20 09:10 PM Apparently it did suck, straight through one of the engines. Elspode Sunday Apr 20 11:44 PM You know, if they didn't build those radomes out of corn husks, they'd probably be a lot tougher. Scriveyn Monday Apr 21 02:52 AM Quote:
Recipe: Pelican Fricassee 1 flying pelican, shreddered into pieces, 24tablespoons olive oil 24 medium onions, sliced in rings 4 clove garlic, minced 8 tomatoes, peeled, or 4 (16-ounce) cans stewing tomatoes with liquid 6 sprigs fresh thyme Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste 2 teaspoons allspice Dash of mace 2 cups water Simmer the onions in a large pan very slowly, covered, for about 15 minutes or until soft, then add the garlic, and saute until the onions are golden. Add the tomatoes and simmer a few minutes. Meanwhile put the pelican whole through an F111 engine at 550km/h. It should now be nicely fried. Now add the pelican pieces, the thyme, salt, pepper, allspice, mace, and water to the pan. Cover and cook for a half hour or until the pelican is tender, adding water if sauce is too thick. Serve with rice. Bon appetit! BeltNah Monday Apr 21 06:26 AM A few people said the same thing in one of those links Elspode. I think you guys might be on to something.

Ahemmmm, corn husks for 100M$? dar512 Monday Apr 21 02:51 PM Are you guys subversives or what? Now all the terrorists are going to be raising pelicans and training them to fly at jets. Gravdigr Monday Apr 21 04:04 PMI would think it would be more like Pelican Puree. Buckrogers47 Monday Apr 21 04:16 PM I just read on Reuters that Iraqi insurgents were just captured with a cache of 50 pelican launchers. Shawnee123 Monday Apr 21 04:56 PM Weopbirds of Mass Destruction? WillieO Monday Apr 21 06:45 PM That bird had alot of Gull to think that it could... BeltNah Monday Apr 21 11:43 PM I wonder who is going to foot the BILL tw Wednesday Apr 23 11:24 PM Why would so much money be spent? The F-111 is historically one of the worst operational aircraft in the world. A product of micromanagement by top generals, admirals, and Secretary of Defense to make the plane they thought engineers would design. It was designed during John Kennedy's administration. So unreliable that an Admiral named Thomas "Tom Cat" Connolly all but lost his job by telling the truth about that crappy F-111. Quote:
The F-111 that was designed as a fighter was so bad as to be reduced to only a bomber. Best thing done to that plane - scrap it for parts. xoxoxoBruce Wednesday Apr 23 11:48 PM From the second link. Quote:
