Default TANK GOT CAUGHT!!!!!!

A sad day in model aviation history, Rolling Harrier caught the Tank off guard and snapped these pics before I arrived, I may see the Tank tomorrow, what do you recommend I do to him?
Should I shake his hand and tell him good job?
Give him a beating with a Vess prop?
Give him a nasty beating with a Vess prop?
Give him a tap on the back and tell him that warbird looks nice?
I am shocked!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Elie, truly a sad day.....the only thing more girly than the Tank flying a warbird is The Tank flying an underpowered warbird. I asked him what he had under the hood and he replied "a saito 65!" like I should have been impressed. I think he is in a true state of denial because when I asked him what
the $%** was going on, he looked at me and said "it's not mine.....it's my sister's, I swear"

Elie, did you see him hiding in the trailer buffing the spinner? Talk about being afraid of coming out of the closet......we're on to you Tank!!!!

Craig

By the way, what's up with the purple stick plane in the background....I supose that is your sister's too?......

Elie, if nothing else, I hope you took care of this situation. Rumour is after everyone left, you gave him a real good a$$ woopin'


Ronnie was saying he overheard Tank asking someone how he could install retracts in his Yak. A sad day indeed

Elie, terribly sorry to see you sacrifice one of your Vess props, but it was for a good purpose and totally justified. Hopefully when Tank came back to consciousness he realized where he had gone wrong. I can only hope the next series of pics includes a burning P-51 and Tank on his knees apologizing to the 3D and IMAC Gods. Glad the Vess was in your right hand and not that big Comp Arf Yak stab. That thing may have killed him!
