I feel sorry for the guy who has to do the mid-flight re-winding

Cheaper than running on batteries!
I do however think it's a bad design. As that key turns into the wind it's gonna throw the whole aerodynamics off.

This is just a "wind up"
Before the war on terror, if I saw an unattended package I used to think "I'll be having that!"

I can really appreciate that picture, while in the USAF I worked on both the F-15 at Camp New Amsterdam, Holland and on the F-16 at Hahn AB, Germany, and both while at Edwards AFB CA. That is great, wish I had of thought of it.  Bob

Many years ago I parked a Navy T-2 at the Coast Guard station at Opa Locka airport for the weekend. When I got back it had been painted with dozens of pink dolphins. Sorry, no pictures.
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
