[QUOTE="kawman, post: 122593, member: 917"] my mate gave me a flying lesson when I was much younger.. 100 mph in the fog in a v/8 valiant.. The more I told him to back off the harder he went... laughing... we left the road at at least 100 mph on a high embankment... we got enough height to be above the fog.. everything went very silent at this time and we were taking the tops out of gum trees 20 feet off the ground .. the flight was very interesting with the head lights showing us where we were going to land. the landing was much worse than the flight.. luckily for me as the car made its landing on a barbed wire fence that got wrapped around the car as it was doing end over enders and acted as a brake and brought the car to a stop on its roof.. at this stage I was not happy and did some serious damage to my my now ex mate, scrambled up the embankment and was picked up by a local preist.. I told him I was having car trouble and he gave me a ride back to the party we had left earlier for another drink.... Take it from me flying is great.. the landings can be a bitch. :| [/QUOTE]
