dubai_phil Posted 5 November, 2009 Share Posted 5 November, 2009 Oops lol - however, fear not EoA. If you just set up a nice CCTV system looking at Sharjah ariport, I'm you'll get your own genuine version of this pretty soon. I hear they have to wear tin hats down there these days due to all the bits falling off dodgy airfreighters. No sign of my blagged Sound City tkts yet though :grumpysmileything: But was assured they would be sorted sometime today :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sotonjoe Posted 5 November, 2009 Share Posted 5 November, 2009 of course it's a fake. if you believe a plane can fly like that with one wing, you are more than gullible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericofarabia Posted 5 November, 2009 Author Share Posted 5 November, 2009 of course it's a fake. if you believe a plane can fly like that with one wing, you are more than gullible! It is a highly versatile aerobatic aircraft and the 'model' version of it managed it so in theory it could be possible. Now explain how a bumble bee flies, apparantly it shouldn't be able to do so or something like that :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubai_phil Posted 7 November, 2009 Share Posted 7 November, 2009 Are we just keeping this thread going to embarrass Eric? It would be unfair to point out that Eric has a very important position in this country and that he and his mates are responsible for things landing properly here so I won't, especially as he just discovered there looks like the chance that the local boys can have our own evening with MLT as he is town for the week doing our Sat channel footie and other stuff...

Saint in Paradise Posted 8 November, 2009 Share Posted 8 November, 2009 Hey DP are you sure EoA has an important job ? I mean a really really important job would involve controlling aircraft and an aircraft controller would know that a plane couldn't fly properly with only one wing. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which includes the fact that The History Channel was showing a programme about secret WWII aircraft and voila.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_flying_wing_aircraft Note the use of the Singular "wing" indicating "flying with one wing" http://www.century-of-flight.net/Aviation%20history/flying%20wings/northrop.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint in Paradise Posted 8 November, 2009 Share Posted 8 November, 2009 They were designed to fly with one wing the video clip showed a plane with one half broken off, assuming that a wing on each side of the fuselage counts as one wing ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
