There have been a few submissions that I have not gotten into the Official Giant Jargon Dictionary on the site yet. I will be working on this soon to get the latest submissions included.

How about Circle Jerk guys who just fly around in circles, then try and land.

Default Re: Giant Jargon - The FG Dictionary

I could not find Core Sample. I have a friend that does this one regularly. Striking the ground in such a way that you have dug out a hole where there is fresh dirt to sample. (hey I have done that one!)

Rolling Lawnmower- a rolling harrier that contacts the ground in such a way that the plane slides along the ground with the prop turning creating the mowing effect from the propeller. This is usually accomplished in an upright fashion. Best results are accomplished in the hours prior to mowing the field.

FFAA- Florida Freestyle Aerobatics Association - a bunch of pilots usually, but not always from Florida, who are dedicated to gathering at different fields, usually but not always in Florida and flying, or attempting to fly every maneuver in the FG aerobatic dictionary except circle flying.

Dual Rates- 2 Receipts, 1 of which has the actual price paid for the new airplane that is hidden and 1 that has a phony price that your wife thinks you paid for the new airplane.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dual Rates can also refer to the wife's instantaneous mood change from calm to ballistic when she finds out you lied about the price of that new plane.

Thanks for the props Sleepy, but I can't take all the credit. I actually just expanded on an idea from one of our members. Also, many of the terms and definitions came from member submissions. All in all, it's like the rest of the site. It wouldn't be what it is without our great family.
