The Spruce Goose had 8 of those badboys, didn't it?

Patton is fantastic.

Hey man, I think I recognize your handle from the Locost forums I lurk at!

The U-2 Dragon Lady. What happens when an airframe built to fly at extremely high altitudes finally has to come back down to Earth?

Aluminum foil + ground beef + burnouts = Engine Block Burgers a la Lambo! Pair with tater tots and your choice of fortified wine.

Is that a golf course? If so, yeah, I can see this being kind of a dick move.
