If you are ***off the world has it in for you and life is going to hell in a bucket!! Take a Dodge out for half hour drive!

  9. Yeah this is good fun! Hey Degsey you did put it together. Obscure I'll admit, but keeps the little grey cells working! :cool2: Also just found out, one of the 'recommended' text books has an error. It lists the name Huffmier as Captain twice, not Hoffman then Huffmier!
  10. Called 'Desperation'. :-D The back blast would probably add the biplane to the impact.
  11. Clearing out a mate's junk pile there was a Lucas type GH84 magneto. Has a manula handle on it. Anyone know what it does? Does it have an MV applictaion? And can anyone use it?

  19. Hydrogen as fuel has been going since the at least 1960. We had two Mercedes Hydrogen powered buses at First five years ago. They were used to take the Olymipic reps about (If I knew then...) Problem at the moment is cost of infrastructure. Hydrogen though the Universes most abudant element is normally attached to something elese. The obvious beig water, H2O. Trouble is it takes a lot of effort and energy to split the H off.
  20. Yes mate! So you have Cerberus' Brest and Wilhemshaven. So that will give you part one. Now who limks the first to the second? A hint is one ship had two captain's with the same surname.
