    ^ Cool….

    Recognize what’s being refueled 😬 but, can’t tell if the tanker’s an L1011 or DC-10 😳
    Always mixed up the two 🤪

    It's the tanker version of the DC-10 (KC-10) 9z2wzk0xd795.png

    It's actually pretty easy to tell the L1011 and the DC-10 apart. The center engine in the L1011 is in the aft end of the fuselage, like a 727, with a big ol' duct gettin' air down to it. The whole engine is mounted up in the vertical tail of the DC-10 (later MD-11).

    Both aircraft had a somewhat checkered operational history :# I have pleasant memories of flying on both, though.

    It's highly obvious the antlers of that moose had too much aerodynamic drag to get to a safe altitude

    That's what you get when a Moose "identifies" as a Reindeer and plays Reindeer games. The Moose could have steered clear if he had a red nose to light the way.

    Of course, Santa may have been drunker than a tick on a fat cow and mistakenly hooked up a Moose instead of a Reindeer. This is a perfect example of why you don't drink and fly.

    We had a dealership battle like this is Springfield, VA when I was a kid. Seeing how they responded and looking forward to the responses was a big part of the fun.

    This guy was in charge of disposing of all our nuclear waste. Better check his drawers. I think he was snorting some of that stuff.

    I went (after a long awaited afternoon nap today) and looked up more about this rivalry.....and once again, this is in my state. Apparently they are doing this in Ravenal, SC. This is just West of Charleston, SC.

    Come to find out, not only was it a friendly battle.....both dealerships were owned by the same guy and he's been doing this for quite some time. Apparently, these signs went viral in 2019 and all but died out with a quick fizzle.

    I can't find any information about the war up in my hometown (well before the times of the internet). That went on for years and was quite funny to follow. After a while, the news of the latest billboard was the hottest family table topic and the person who had the latest news was held in high esteem (because they knew before anyone else).
