What is it supposed to mean?
I don’t know, sir!
You don’t know very much, do you?
No, sir!
You better get your head and your ass wired together, or I will take a giant sh@# on you!
Yes, sir!
Now answer my question or you’ll be standing tall before the man!
I think I was trying to suggest something about the duality of man, sir!
The what?
The duality of man. The Jungian thing, sir!
Whose side are you on, son?
Ah the Evergreen Air and Space… so awesome.
I stay awake at nights worrying about the duality of man. Usually it ends when I realize I am but one man who isn't very easily cut in half
Haven't you been following the posts about sharpening?
Actually I haven't been. My Target knives are good enough for me

Target knives are more for impaling people than for cutting them in half.
That is exactly what I meant
The little one looks like an SR71. What's the big one? Spruce Goose?
Only one plane can make the SR-71 look small and that's the Spruce Goose. Oddly that is one of the best pictures I've seen to show the size of the Spruce Goose because most of us have seen a Blackbird in person and know how big it is
Two totally different takes on a non-metallic airframe.
Sorry to go all pedant on you but the SR71 is Titanium which is most definitely metallic. Also the last time I was at Evergreen they had moved the SR71 into the space museum building.so this juxtaposition is sadly no longer available.
Well, it is at least 15% non-metallic http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_SR-71_Black… and I doubt that we still really know all there is to know about the SR-71. I have seen two up close. One at the Air & Space Museum in DC, tapped on a wing there and it was metallic. The other at the Air Force Museum in Dayton, tapped on the plane there, not metallic.
Good point wood and titanium. Both taking their aerial roles to the logical extreme. Whether that's to carry the greatest cargo loads or to be the fastest recon aircraft. I never thought of the Spruce Goose like this. I could almost see Kelly Johnson making his own to answer the requirements that Hughes got
I'll take whichever is loudest.
The Spruce Goose went to Eleven…feet off the ground.
