BOING No 1 .

[Air Ministry .]

Will chuck a few more on .





Kohimarama , is where it is . ( Mission Bay . Auckland . N. Z. )





Boeing 1 F " flying boat outside the buildings of the Walsh Brothers Flying School



SO , If New zealand had never bought that FIRST BOING , there might never have been a Boing . and then where would you all be .





Youll note the fully automated C A D assisted computerised facility , in fitting in with the times .  Thought a few ' over there ' might find intrest in it . Boing 1f they say .
Walsh Brothers flying school .

Air Miniseries,

Yer talking about an histerical company there with Boing, but don't forgeddabout Loughead, and such. Not much left of Bell, and even the spinnoff Consodolated is hard to find nowadays. McDoogle, that come from nowhere in the jet age to being one of the best now can't build something whut even looks like a Jointed Fighter--because it merried up with Boing on a Mattel-molded droopy trapazoid. Let's not yammer about the I ron Werks, because mebbe Grueman only got bought because of their legtronics? No fight left in their fighters, and not enough poke in the pot to gamble on another try at airframing. Still can't figure out how Northrap--who virtually bankrupted itself designing a plane that nobody wanted, the F'in-20--ended up holding most of the pie, the pie plate and a box full of apples to keep making more....

We need pitchers of all those pints, so leave the Irish lennons behind and get to the story on the 'lunanum jobs....

We are definitely two peoples separated by a common language.

Phonetic's .
Kowing about five pronunciations for letter groups , you can prattle this off like a pro , without having a clue what your talking about . Just like school teachers , really . 

 ' one ' gets the odd bit of devouricy from

school teacher who promoted a number of educational and political causes. The most well known being the simplification of spelling.

the last word is ' to you all ' or ' you all ' im reliably informed .
The p.c. when they telephone , go " Kaiora " If you go ' Tenakwae tenakota katoa ' Thered be a deafly silence . as they didnt KNOW maori language  . Greetings and salutations to you all ' Im Told . Kaiora is G'day .
which is God day to you my fine fellow , abrieviated .
Paternal Opinion was School Teachers were people who couldnt hold a real job .

For a small backwater NZ has always punched well above it's weight. Interesting stuff Mr Air Ministry. I've swum many times at Mission Bay and caught many a good Snapper near Bean Rock- the lighthouse over the years, looks just the same today. Thanks for the memories.

It might help our moderator keep space on the server if we post only pictures of Model Airplane Stunters  (see StuntHanger Mission Statement)

Thank you Floyd, I have been wanting to say the same thing.

It is sad that Sparky is having to add disk space when so many of the heavy graphic posters are not contributors.

Sure, but it would also help tremendously if the folks posting pictures would go to the (slight) trouble to crop, resize and compress picture files to somewhere between 50kb and 100kb.

Also, I would suggest that Air Misery should learn to spell "Boeing". It is pronounced "Bow-ing", not "Boing".

Steve, my father was with McDonnell Douglas. Boing is more fitting!
