Tuff crowd huh birdy?   07xb12ss Posted on Sunday, February 06, 2011 - 05:36 pm:        Ummm have you never seen a car on blocks?

Im not a fan of fake 'funny' stuff if it was real, that it'd actually gotten jacked, yeah, thatd be funny, be we know thats not the case   Pkforbes87 Posted on Monday, February 07, 2011 - 09:04 am:        I got the joke, it was worth a smile.. no reason to bust the OP's balls just because it didn't bring you to tears.. As for the reality of the photo, obviously nothing has been stolen. Those stands are some times used during long-term maintenance procedures to keep the gear out of the way and allow for removal of a lot of other major components. Since the stands are spread out like they are in the picture, maintainers no longer have to worry about keeping the aircraft properly weighed and balanced. My guess from looking at the condition and location of the craft, is that it's being used for some sort of training. There's a similar setup on the base where I work that the Fire Dept. regularly sets on fire.   Xodot Posted on Monday, February 07, 2011 - 09:41 am:        Good one Birdy (Tough room you are working here pal)   Loki Posted on Monday, February 07, 2011 - 09:47 am:        must've been parked in Detroit.   Slaughter Posted on Monday, February 07, 2011 - 10:16 am:        Worked in aircraft salvage (Mark Thompson's Aviation Warehouse) for one summer after divorcing in early 1980's.

Thanks!!!   Blake Posted on Monday, February 07, 2011 - 10:57 am:        See many rattlers?   Cityxslicker Posted on Monday, February 07, 2011 - 11:04 am:        poor Antonov, I knew ye not it was the Cr@ptanistan freedom bird
