The long walk of shame...
 
How many of you have had to do the walk of shame? Lets hear your stories.

Here is one from a guy that forgot to turn his plane on. Usually when that happens, its not that far to walk. But when you throw it off a cliff, its going to be a LONG walk of shame!! :(

I think I learned how to say "Oh Crap" in a new language! :D

My last walk of shame involved a road trip!:-(:D

Forgot to turn on radio on a glider once. Got about 3/4 up the HiStart and the wings folded. The wing that departed the fuse first was a looooooong way across the field.:oops::oops:

That reminds me of high school when one guy had a hamburger in one hand and a discus on the other. Well, sure enough, he tossed his burger the furthest that day.

Sooner or later, everyone does something stupid.

My personal "best" was at a fun fly last summer. In my haste & excitement to get airborne, I neglected to install the screw that secures the wing to the fuselage on the ParkZone T-28.

Took off fine, but as I turned downwind... yup, you guessed it... the wing decided to go its own way.

Heck of a way to introduce yourself to a bunch guys you've never met before!

To add insult to injury... I won a bottle of CA at the raffle...
