Plane abandoned at Hanoi airport

[jedidia]

I also have a SIG SG-550 in 5.56mm,

now if you use that one for stealing a plane it might convince even the SVP that it's no good idea to let the militia keep their guns at home! :lol:

 

[tl8]

No plan survives the first contact with the enemy.

We need a fighter escort for providing cover until we have moved the 727 outside the range of the Vietnamese air force. Don't require me to attack the fighters by jumping on their canopies, naked, bad-tempered and armed only with my knife. We can do it without the Celtic thing, right?:huh:

See here:

Okay Urwumpe has a G-3, TL8 has a fighter jet, and Ghostrider has a 9mm, I'll bring my M-1, or Springfield, and a .45 we'll just steal the fuel. Me and Tl8 will cover Urwumpe and Ghostrider, they'll take the Pilot, Coolhand will steal a fuel truck, we'll gas up, and escape chased by the Vietnamese army and airforce, and we'll land it at my secret volcano lair in the Pacific.

Damn, shotgun already called, I'll take the Engineer's seat! Flying sideways, woo hoo! Right now I only do that in orbit!

Well, we could use the stolen plane to start a new all-Swiss airline, without Big Fat Managers. That would show everybody that it's a good idea to let the militia handle stuff.

Cool, the Orbitee's are becoming 'Rocketeers of Fortune'.

"In 2008 an elite group of space simulator flyers went to Hanoi to buy a 727 that no one wanted. These men promptly loaded the plane with fuel and guns and travelled the world. Today, still arguing who sits where, where they are going and who drunk the drink trolley dry, they merely cope, with on laptop to fly orbiter. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, if you can find them, and have a load of cash for the fuel bills, just maybe you can hire the O-Team." DA Da Da Da DA Da DA Daaaaa

Since you're all call 'dibs' on the plane, seat positions and others.... I'll call dibs on Discovery, when it retires.

What good would we be? We would probably kill the wrong people (and oursleves) in the process, and, even worse, blow the plane up at the same time!

There would be way to may fights to see who got to attempt mid-flight EVA, who got to fly the thing, who gets the vodka and vb, whether or not we should test the operating ceiling and attempt to get the thing out of the atmosphere, who gets the parachutes (that fight might not last for long) and who's first in the que for the pearly gates!

 

[Urwumpe]

I am not going to fight for vodka. I prefer scotch. Also, you'll find me in the back-of-the-bus. Why fly, when you can get flown.

 

[James.Denholm]

When the plane crashes, you'll be dead as well! Why not fight over the drinks?

EDIT: Oh, I get it. You'll be the only one sober on the plane, so you'll amost be garunteed a parachute.

Exactly. Also a plane, which is not flown by me, will not crash. That is logic.

I fly a plane -> It will crash
It will not crash -> I will not fly it.


Also I don't need the parachute. I will stop my fall with the recoil of the G3. I only need to fire 15 kg bullets for this.

 

[gawinnard]

Have you compensated for the weight of the bullets and the decreasing weight?

 

[James.Denholm]

Herm... if you can keep yourself airborne (or, at least, lower ourselves to the ground safely) do you think it's feasable that we bring a howizer abord the plane? That way, when you do have to pilot the plane, Urwumpe, because even I, an almost 16 year old, am passed out from a high BAC, we actualy have a chance at survival. Otherwise, I'm going to start madly writing !medic out on scraps of paper during our fligt...

Sorry those who don't get it, it's a DoD:S refrence.

 

[Ghostrider]

Cool, the Orbitee's are becoming 'mercenaries for hire'.

We prefer the term "Rocketeers of Fortune".

Only if the mission requires so.

 

[James.Denholm]

Only if the mission requires so.

Right. Dosen't every mission require that, as well as cool quotes, memorable scenes, a bad guy that was once a good guy and thats why everyone hates him, a bunch of gadgets, and a lot of CGI?

 

[JEL]

Couldnt we install propellors on it? 189 seats, 1 set of pedals per seat, could that generate enought thrust to get it airborne do you think? Team-work you know

High-ho, high-ho, up the air we go, tra-lala and yippe-yay, or something like that

Rocketeers of Fortune, coming to theatres near you this Christmas. Based on the true story of band of intrepid Rocketeers, 10 men infiltrated Vietnam hoping to steal an airplane, this movie is pretty much Where Eagles Dare, with a bunch of drunks, a few ex-military 4 rifles 4 pistols and a cross bow and a fuel truck.

Could you add a Trike, no, even better a slingshot

Is this the New Probe style thread?

 

[Ghostrider]

I have the slingshot too. Steel shot or paint shot?
