This reminds me of one of the old timers stories from years past before anyone considered, (or had to consider) litigation prior to every move they made at the field.

It seems around the 4th of july, yep, you know where this is headed, someone came up with the idea of dogfighting with Roman Candles taped to the wings (to fire forward).
I dodnt recall the types of planes used, but, the force of the "rockets firing would, of coarse, cause erratic flight characteristics and when both fired at once, the planes would nearly stall out.

Im sure theres some veteran pilots here reluctant to disclose events from their wilder days, but, Id sure like to hear about a few for a change.

I realize its a different world we live in today, but, if we could put a lid on the reckless endanderment speeches for a while, maybe some folks will let their guard down and let us laugh with them?
