No Signals Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I had this emailed to me, it is 'doing the rounds' and some of you may have seen it already. For the others -.....!!!!!! During a private "fly-in" fishing excursion in the Alaskan wilderness, the chartered pilot and fishermen left a cooler and bait in the plane. And a bear smelled it. This is what he did to the plane. The pilot used his radio and had another pilot bring him 2 new tires, 3 cases of duct tape, and a supply of sheet plastic. He patched the plane together, and FLEW IT HOME ! Moral - never leave home without duct tape ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woa2 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 i cant remember where i saw it but in life you only need 3 things WD-40 to un stick things Duct tape to to stick things Zip ties if all else fails Jamie Another VERY useful item is a wire coat hanger. I used one at work when installing multi-million pound Computer systems, as straightened out, I could use it to reach the data and power cables under the raised floor. An indispenable item of kit.

ashley Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Hi all, on childrens TV (Brainiacs) they proved that you could lift a (average) family saloon 10+ meters in to the air using 100 pieces of selotape. Ashley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
