--- Quote from: Mr. Hurricane on June 20, 2015, 10:47:12 PM ---I climb onto the aircraft and approach Tippy. I stand on the center-rear of the fuselage and hold my arms out to the sides, genturing to the aircraft. "Here's your airframe, I mean, it's not NAUC's and if the rebels are using trucks with aircraft rocket pods on the back as artillery, who would give a forget if they got a jury rigged Tomcat?" I look at the aircraft. "What projects would you have back at base? loving with the TV's to be able to change it from Gladiator Crashers to Skeleton Man?" --- End quote --- "Actually something more stubborn than that. You know how computers can be." (She is of course referencing that robot she picked up back on base.) Tippy looks at the craft lustfully. Then an idea pops in her head. "I would really love to take this thing home... i have a brilliant idea that would make this thing fit for modern air combat." |

I'm a bit shocked that she isn't actually joking. "-I was going to say the Corsair seems to have a similar design. Perhaps it's even one derived from the F-14..." I look around the aircraft, still in disbelief that she's actually loving serious. "How do you plan on getting this thing home? Sure there's plenty of aircraft to cannibalize for parts, but it's not registered to our airforce- Perhaps command would be so surprised that they just blow it off and let you keep it," |

I'm not a hotrod or even a tank person despite my history with treaded vehicles. But the added bonus is that i could add hardware that a civilian couldn't. But you're right, command might be a little weirded out we are taking this thing home. Unless the team all pitches in and convinces them. Group project for Morale?" |
| Mr. Hurricane:
"Isn't it convenient that I have an Aerospace Engineering degree? I'd have to think about. Right now I'm thinking that there's a lot of stuff you can get away with in war. I remember reading a piece about how some Porlaqs took a stuffty LaGG-whatever aircraft and field-modded it, making it from the worst fighter aircraft ever built to one of the best. Granted, no amount of upgrading will bring this thing up to speed with the Corsair, but I think we could get close- if we have the right stuff," I eye the aircraft and shake my head. She's loving serious. |

Though you couldn't see it. "No amount of upgrading you say? You may be an Aerospace Engineer but I'm a tank mechanic. And we make any vehicle do what we want. We should see if we can get the other flight members to vote to bring it in, it can't hurt to try." |
