Hi all!
I do hope you guys and girls are well and in good health! Here all is well and going like… (Do we say “like a Boeing?”) Ag well, let’s just say it goes well! LOL.
On that note: I saw a video the other day about the last flight of a SAA B747 SP. The pilot said that although the aircraft did not fly for the last two years, everything on it still worked fine. One could just fuel her up and fly to Europe! Goes to show, they don’t make ‘em like that any more. What a shame.
Anyway, they did fuel her up, but flew only about 12 kilometres to her final resting place as a display for that kind of aircraft. They landed her on a runway only 15 meters wide. The engines were sticking out over the runway edges, but land she did, never to take off again. And so ended the life of an aircraft that once broke the speed record for flying from Seattle in the USA to Cape Town no-stop. But she will be preserved for the future at the museum at Rand Airport.
Herewith, iSigodi Chapter 9. Have fun! I had fun making the pics for the chapter. Well, it turned out I had to rewrite a few sentences in the text of the chapter, as the outfit Melanie had on only worked when she stood up or walked. But sitting down was a scary part, as the bottom half of the dress did not fit any sitting style. So plan B and a new outfit for her. Just before someone comments and say the pic does not show her correct outfit. So, all five pics had to be done over!
I would rather not elaborate on a second little “WHY” I had to change Melanie’s outfit for the sitting poses. The pics gave my Editor in Missouri a heart attack. Big Red Rubber Stamp on it saying: “NOT FIT FOR PUBLICATION.” LOL!!!! (Or maybe I could have just gave her some underwear…) Still, the forming of the dress was unnatural.
Until next week. Stay good and stay safe.
Bye 4 now!
