Err . . . not flying machines!


I'm sure readers will have realized by now that I'm interested in aircraft and aviation in general.

Some areas of "aviation", however, are in a different category.

I particularly like the steaming skateboard. Not to be outdone were the Coogee Surf Patrol "Double Pluggers":




This (allegedly) flying machine was called "How Iconic" . . .




. . . but it fared no better than the others:

Looks like a good time was had by all!
