I built a very rough ejection seat and added a pilot to my Sea Harrier this week.........

The pilot's name is Sharkey after this guy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigel_Ward (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigel_Ward)

Simon, much like farm animals you never name the pilot in your planes. It makes it to hard to deal with their "retirement"

Well, we found "Hans" in the field already...   You should be cleaver and add a para for him!  lol!  At least we might find him sooner than later.

Isn't that when you then get "Sharkey 2" etc?

I don't think that will balance Ed - it looks a bit lopsided..... ???

Im not finished it yet Simon.  when its finished I think it will be perfecly balanced.  I might be a little off balance but that is another problem all together.

If you find yourself off balance, it just means you're not holding a big enough glass.
