Pic of the week game

I'll vote for Trevor this week as his garage is so welcoming,(been there, got the sticker) well except for that Euro-Trash thingy. For the record, the "Water Pipe" thing is just a lab flask I came across, a double hole rubber plug with 8-32 all thread and electrical trim nuts capping the ends. I could modify it for you Norm to meet your specifications.:cool-new:

Lol...thanks Charlie....we sure had a great night in the garage.....it was an honour to have you in my garage.

Btw....If you look closely you will see 4 flags in my garage...plus two GS bikes.... :)
 
Saturday - Tally

I would have though Trevor would get more votes. I liked the picture for good exposure in a garage, the display of the bikes and the various flags, could find another after looking a while.

Norm Storm64 got a 5th vote to break what could have been a tie.
Mine 1 vote.
CharlieG 4 votes.
Trevor 2 votes.

Hey Norm, What you got for us next...?

PS: Hey Folks, let me suggest that when we vote we state the persons login name.

You got the idea, Mr Bob Baatfam.

Although My suggestion/comment/request is specific to the voting.
THis week would have been a good example. The voting was a near tie. And Some folks voted for "Norm" and some folks voted for "Storm" (or Storm64). And someone could have concluded a different winner if didn't recognize that Norm and Storm are the same.

And this is why I use my real name. Lol
 
Okay guys, how about this for a theme for picture of the week. "Aviation". A pretty broad subject, lets see what you got... When I'm out riding and come up to a county airport, I always pull in to see what's happening. This picture is from one of my favorite airports Beaver County Airport.

Ugg, the only picture I can use is of the air control tower at Peterson AFB CO that is too far away to really make out. I'll have to try to make a ride for the Museum or Dayton International this week

Come on Scott I mean Cowboy, the Birthplace of Aviation is right in your backyard! I'm sure you can come up with something interesting. 👍
 
Always loved this pic....a few years ago at bike night...Victoria airport....miss that bike. :(

 
Does this work?
My bike with the NASA Vomit Comet. This KC-135 is on display at the entrance to Ellington Field in Houston Texas. If anyone has seen the movie "Apollo 13" and have ever wondered how the weightless scenes were filmed, this is the answer, this airplane N930NA was used for this purpose, it was retired and put on display not long after the filming for Apollo 13 wrapped. The normal usage of this plane was for experiments and astronaut training in zero gravity environments.

Taken last night in Essex, Ontario in front of the Essex Memorial Spitfire. It was erected in memory of Jerry Billings, an Essex resident who flew Spitfires for the RCAF in WWII and later. There is also an honour wall with the names of Windsor-Essex County RCAF veterans inscribed.

Man. I've got a retired USAF FU-078 jet ten miles from my house, but there's some tough competition already!
I may have to bark up a different tree for this one.
 
I am working on one. I have a picture for a "Plan B", but will find out tomorrow if "Plan A" will work. :-\\\

If "Plan A" doesn't work, there is also talk of a "Plan C", so there will definitely be something. :encouragement:
