Did you ever find the turn signal?

NO... no help here just a bunch of people who think they are funny...I've moved on to trying to figure out why my reverse lights don't turn on when I use reverse thrust.  Any Ideas?

You seem to think you are "funny" but quite honestly you are not. You are just annoying.

Thanks for your opinion but that doesnt seem to be the general consensus so maybe your are wrong .

Nope - it's a refreshing change for this form. Keep it up cat.

It's a light-hearted thread. Some serious threads get derailed either by humour or personal insults taking over. I personally see no harm in the occasional one of these threads being allowed to run.🙂

Another DA thread

What do you mean by DA?:unsure:

I believe that whilst there are many planes equipped with reverse thrust, only a couple of them are worthy of having reversing lights fitted - The SAAB Viggen and the Pilatus Turbo Porter, possibly the Blackburn Beverley too.

Desi Arnaz?

Dark Angel?

Double Action?

Perhaps Deeply/Darned/Damned Annoying? Who knows, but there are plenty of that kind of DA thread which are a less pleasant read.😶

Is there anyway to make it so if you put a user on ignore you can't see their threads? I put OP on ignore but this thread still shows up.

If someone quotes a user on ignore, you can see their post. Otherwise the forum puts a line in place of their posts that says you’ve chosen to ignore so-and-so.

Do you have "all" checked?

The Hawker Siddeley / British Aerospace Harrier ?

Not to be confused with the Hawker Harrier which was a biplane and did not have reverse thrust.
