That gave me an Idea. I have added an attachment to the original post with the list in a word format. Just download and print. I will keep it up to date with the current list.

Lawn Dart Any sleek looking aircraft with a pointy nose that is likely to get good ground penetration in a crash.

Stovin or Stoved A very brutal crash where the remains resemble whit it would look like if an old cast iron stove were dropped on the aircraft. The remains are not good for much more that a few minutes of heat in a wood burning stove.

Wizard; One who steps to the plate and knocks one out of the park without being asked. All organizations have one. An idividual who does something spectacular as a community service, without expecting pats on the back. Does it because it needed to be done, not because he was promted to.

The field was a MESS! We discussed it at last Thursday's meeting and have decided to do a study and elect a comittee to see what the root cause of the problem is and do a survey about each club members thoughts. We met at the field and somebody pulled a Wizard! The field was spotless and we don't even know who did it! When asked at the next meeting, all club members were present. We asked for the member who stepped to the plate to raise a hand and be noticed,,,nobody raised a hand.

That my friends is a Wizard. One of the highest honors one can receive.

Grommet; The club or organization member who does nothing to help, but complains or offers suggestion for others to do. Spends 5 hours complaining over what could be resolved in 15 minutes.

Look at those rubber bands on the flight line! Every week I come out there are rubber bands on the flight line and in the pits. Next meeting I'm going to raise cain about these rubber bands. Somebody BETTER do something about these rubber bands. All somebody would have to do is bring a rake and it could be clean and neat in 15 minutes. Why doesn't somebody bring a rake? It's so simple, bring a rake and 15 minutes later the pits are clean! Let's have a meeting and get somebody to rake! Why doesn't somebody take some pride and rake the pits? I'm tired of looking at the mess!
