3D Dirty Birdy?
 

One of our club members came out yesterday with an old Dirty Birdy that he pulled out of storage and breathed new life into. This was no straight restoration. He hacked and chopped on it, added parts from five other planes, put a 20cc DLE gas engine on it and has built a 3D Dirty Birdy. You read that right, a 3D-DB (extra credit if you get the reference).

Heres a couple of shots of it sitting next to my DB for comparision.

OH NOOOOO, A 3D DIRTY BIRDY! [X(]

The guy that did this should be thrown in Classic Pattern Prison for life! And a TAIL DRAGGER to boot! I'm gonna have nightmares for six months! Might even have to start seeing a therapist! :eek:

It's ummm...."different"!

3D DB...was that Mr. Whoopie's 3 dimensional drawing board, that he used when he had to explain something to Tennesee Tuxedo and Chumley? (or was that 3D BB? )

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

He could've bought a U Can Do.;)
Heinous.

Have you no shame?

DB isn't meant for 3D. I like the tail dragger, tho. That is a plus!

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

how is a taildragger a plus?

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

I knew you guys would love this.

And the bonus points go to Proptop for the 3DBB reference.

Don't see educational cartoons like that any more...

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

Tennessee Tuxedo and Chumley- now THAT is classic.
The "3D" Dirty Birdy, well that's just wrong. Very wrong.

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

What a disgrace...

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

Shoot it and put it out of its misery.

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

A 3D Dirty Birdy, HMMMMMMM, it is so wrong that it is right!

I know we all have to do our bit when it comes to recycling, but.......

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

That's what happens to pattern ships that vacation at Chernobyl... As long as it doesn't reproduce :D

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

Fortunately for us, if it's been in Chernobyl it's probably sterile! :)

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

Good one Ralph. we definitely want that one sterile.

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

Ah, Is no comment a comment?

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

I want the old school canopy off of that disgrace, LOL

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

It's like jacking up the back end of a Ferarri for drag slicks...

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

I'll bet it would still qualify for an SPA event though...[sm=bananahead.gif]

RE: 3D Dirty Birdy?
 

Sorry, I'm first in line.

When we set them up for the picture he said "Hey, mine has a different canopy." I said "No, mine has a different canopy!"

Sure is one Ugly Dirty Birdy. How well does it fly with the DLE 20 engine?
