Judging by the uniforms though it's the Germans that nicked a Scammell and put it to use...

They can't be German's, one of them is smiling, the uniform is just a disguise.   ;) ;D :thumbsup:

Me, I'm dishonest, and you can always trust a dishonest man to be dishonest.
Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to watch out for!!!

Yup if it ain't screwed down  :wacko:
They don't have any screwdrivers?   :unsure:

Sorry mate. It's an old British saying. Basically means that if you leave something around that is quick and easy to move then someone will steal it. If you take some form of security measure then most people are to lazy to steal it  :rolleyes:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I knew that...
... basically that is what I rely on when I park my bicycle at work: a sturdy U lock fixing frame and rear wheel to a strong bike stand, and a cable through the front wheel. Too much work to take away any of the important pieces.

My father had a saying, many years ago, "Locks only deter honest people!"

Usually muttered as he took a pair of bolt cutters to a padlock which he'd lost the key to...  ;) ;D ;D

That's why everyone in the service calls them "The Master Key".  They also deter operations.  When the 2003 Blackout hit, I got called in for potential recovery and support operations in Hoboken, NJ.  Of course, none of the mechanics got called in and none of the fulltimers had a key to the motor pool office.  So our senior NCO gave me permission to cut the locks off two of our heavy trucks that weren't prepped to roll out for Annual Training the next week.

From GTA V.  Looks like a blending of a MH-53 and a Sea Knight or Chinook. What the hell is the creative team at Rockstar smoking  :blink:

That's pretty neat ! Not a big fan of the way the rear rotor tower looks, but would have to see some more angles before casting judgement. Looks like it would also retain it's original landing gear layout ? The external tanks are huge !

My kid got that game for Christmas I'll have to ask him about finding it for me.
