Could have been worse,it could have appeared on a flex-wing instead of a fixed :biggrin:

Yes I can.I have put a few bids in but still being out bid, but its a lot of cash for something that may not be as good as they are telling you.
Like you say try to go for the reconditioned ones, gopro hero 3 for £135.
And yes I do bid more then £10 :biggrin:

£135 is ok for the H3 but I have seen them cheaper on the 'Bay in the past :smile:

The £135 as from an authorized GoPro seller on Ebay, it seems they recondition it and then give you a full 12 months guarantee.

Stupid pair of irresponsible imbeciles, :icon_rolleyes: ... and poor moggy - it must've been petrified! I mean ... :anerikke: ... surely this couple could scarcely have been so bound up in their excitement as to fail to notice its presence before taking off in the first place! :NoNo:

Arthur,have you ever flown in a microlight,a fixed wing?Obviously not :icon_lol: the cats got into the fabric of the wings unseen,you do your pre-flight checks but inside the fabric of the wings?No.:wink:The way I read that clip they weren't aware the cat was on the plane when they took off.

A genuine Mistake by the pilot I would have said, a bit strong Arthur.
Once he saw the cat he came straight back to the airfield to land, yes it would have been horrible if the cat fell off, but all ended well.

Yup,i read it as a genuine mistake :biggrin: because a cat in the wings could have been disasterous for ALL involved, no one is going to take a wandering cat up in the wing on purpose :wink:

I think we could be looking at this all wrong.
We have all read about clever animals and cats are clever too.
There has always been the odd cat or two walking into our pictures and some even seem to be smiling, so did this cat think I want to be in some sort of video to show off to his mates.
Take this cat.
Do you think he is a private eye working for another dog, or just a purrrrrrrrrrvert?
