Leo keeps his nose
« on: November 03, 2007, 07:40:33 PM »
On Saturday it was a temperate day with slight winds and a little fall in the air.....

Leo was having one of his glorious days of flying his RUFFY. With a few good engine runs I asked him to try one of my new props that I found at the local hobby shop.

After a good wrench and a prim....flipping started. The FP-40 gave a groan and backflip-ed that new prop...kicked it off the shaft, hit the ground bounced up and hit him in the nose......BLOOD started to ooze just like in the song "Mac the Knife".....
After several seconds of eye's blinking at each other Leo say's.....do I look better???!!!

Scott, Don't keep us in suspense. Does he indeed look better?

I guess that would be called , "Sticking your nose in someone else's prop"

You got it backwards.
It's sticking your prop in someone else's nose. LL~ LL~
