May 10, 200619 yr Jet...agricultural...biplane... Good for a whole 100mph. The plane it was designed to replace was a 1946-vintage prop biplane (the AN-2) that is still being used today. The same people who built that (PZL) built this... ...a twin-engine bomber leftover from an airliner proposal built so poorly the Polish national airline rejected it. It was also made of so many different materials that it split apart in midair on a demonstration flight carrying prospective Romainian buyers. The 'improved' version had a new tail design so heavy it couldn't carry bombs and gear retractors so weak it flew with the wheels down. And it crashed, too. They also built this... ...which caught fire alot and this... ...which is just plain ugly. So...yay for Poland!
May 10, 200619 yr Bored Fly? I wonder if Polish airliners have screen doors like their submarines do.
May 10, 200619 yr hahaha nice but hey guys watch out... if your not careful... croc might see your funny joke an accuse you of being "racist and uninformed" Edited May 10, 200619 yr by 04monteintimidator
May 10, 200619 yr hahaha nice but hey guys watch out... if your not careful... croc might see your funny joke an accuse you of being "racist and uninformed" And Polish Kris will be mad as well. And !!! Ted !!! And any other Poles on the site.
May 10, 200619 yr ...like me!!! YOU DIRTY ()*&(*#&@$)%(*@)$#(*@)(#&%)@(#)&^@#($)@(#*) Nah, I'm way too international to care about ANY racial jokes... as long as they stay jokes that is. I've got Polish in me, but I've got 6 other countries in here too, so I really don't care about nationality anymore.
May 10, 200619 yr Polish aircraft may not be the among the best in the world, but it's people generally are.
May 10, 200619 yr I wouldn't think anyone could take offense to this topic. It's in reference to the engineering prowess of the Polish Nation rather than towards the Polish race itself. I'd place this equivalent to jokes regarding Korean quality... it's about the product, not the race.

Seems like it. Yet there are no Toronto Italians on the site and Toronto is caked with them.
May 10, 200619 yr My god that's ugly! It has a bigger chin than Jay Leno!! Edited May 10, 200619 yr by Dodgefan
May 10, 200619 yr ...im polish but mainly finnish and danish.. Wait, Chargerino, you're mostly Scandinavian, and you have such an out-there personality? Perhaps we shouldn't stereotype.
May 11, 200619 yr i dont get what u mean by that, along with alot of other times, but..could you at least explain to me what u mean this time?
May 11, 200619 yr i dont get what u mean by that, along with alot of other times, but..could you at least explain to me what u mean this time? Scandinavians are stereotyped as being neutral, aseptic and not having a lot of outward displays of personality or emotion...that's how most Europeans from other countries see them from what I gather. A lot of it comes from the persistently $h!ty weather up there. It's always cloudy...just like Seattle. They also tend to have a higher than average incidence of alcoholism, probably as a result of that. I've only changed planes in Scandinavia (at Copenhagen) and looking out the window, I'll keep it at that. Beach, sunshine, good food, in your face people....those are all SOUTH of there. Got it, Charge?
May 11, 200619 yr Scandinavians are stereotyped as being neutral, aseptic and not having a lot of outward displays of personality or emotion... Got it, Charge? Tell me how i relate to that?
May 11, 200619 yr Tell me how i relate to that? Oh, brother!Read what I said up above -- that you HAVE a personality, now do you get it?
May 11, 200619 yr You too. What's the deal? Do all of the Polish guys on the site live in Canada? Seems like it. Yet there are no Toronto Italians on the site and Toronto is caked with them. The town I grew up in had a lot of Italians too. It's not far from Toronto either. There seemed to be some kind of correlation between being Italian, wearing too much hair gel, wife beaters and driving Hondas. I mean, I'm not being racist here, but I really wanted to tell most of the Italians I went to high school with to wear a real shirt, stop gluing up their hair, and stop buying old Civics and Accords. I really don't even understand where the Honda thing comes from - I mean, the black Italian hair lends itself to gel, most of them were muscular, so I can at least understand where the gel and wife beaters come from, but Honda love?
May 11, 200619 yr Oh, brother! Read what I said up above -- that you HAVE a personality, now do you get it? yes after alot of explaining...i can be pretty quick to catch somethings (so im told), but i also alot can be very incridbly slow!

That's a Guido. Or a Gino to Canadians. We don't have any of that out West. Italians are assimilated out here. Yep, gel and wife beaters...bad news! BTW, was that Woodbridge? I thought they liked big American cars...I think of a Guido driving a Monte Carlo SS, a Grand Prix, a 'maro or an FBird....that's standard issue, just like those sandals people from India are born with.
May 11, 200619 yr aaah yes the guido... standard issue transport for them over on the east coast is a hummer(with shiny rims of course), a riced RSX, a G35 or a riced out previous gen 'stang... only people ive seen drivin MCs here are older guys in their 40s... and kids like me... haha

Can't keep up with Tri-state area Guido car trends living out on "the coast."
May 11, 200619 yr Flinging around all these insults about Polish planes and you forget the ugliest of them all. I think your dancing chicks have bathing suits of Polish design...they got their swatch patterns "confused." Edited May 11, 200619 yr by trinacriabob
May 11, 200619 yr Mitsubishi G4M Betty Another country that shouldnt make plane. the "Flying zippo" is not a compliment. Edited May 11, 200619 yr by capriceman
May 11, 200619 yr Coolest. Plane. EVER No. The coolest plane is right below. Edited May 11, 200619 yr by trinacriabob
May 11, 200619 yr And Polish Kris will be mad as well. And !!! Ted !!! And any other Poles on the site. Nah... Thanks alot Brian for exposing Polands secret weapons though.
May 11, 200619 yr Coolest. Plane. EVER P-51 Mustang...I so wish I could own one P-51's are cool, but my favorite WW2 plane was the F-4U Vought Corsair: Pretty. Deadly. Mostly deadly. And my favorite fighter of all: F/A-22. Bow down, beeeyotch.
May 11, 200619 yr Author Nah... Thanks alot Brian for exposing Polands secret weapons though. BTW: WWII's coolest plane is... ...even if it never entered service.
May 12, 200619 yr Cold Wars Coolest Plane EVER!!!! If you DONT know what this is think about killing yourself
May 12, 200619 yr Cold Wars Coolest Plane EVER!!!! If you DONT know what this is think about killing yourself That's a Piper Cub right?
May 12, 200619 yr Cold Wars Coolest Plane EVER!!!! If you DONT know what this is think about killing yourself Oh, it's only the fastest manmade machine on the planet.
May 12, 200619 yr Polish aircraft may not be the among the best in the world, but it's people generally are. Agreed! As far as Croc... well, there's a lot of selective b!tching going on around here. :wink:
