      Good idear BUT unless you do some " modifications " it probably won't split apart.... sadly .. but DEFINITELY worth a try !
      Even more so if you use long ish chains and give each tank a bit of speed ( bit like snatch recovery "

      I did go car surfing on top of an early '80s Toyota Celica at the Pod once. I fell off at about 30mph. I wouldn't recommend doing it unless you have your big beer coat on.

    One has flown a Jet Provost after many hours in a Chipmunk. Not bad for an ATC cadet.
    I recall flying the Chippie along the required railway line back to RAF Wittering when the pilot shouted 'I have control' threw it hard to Port while a Victor went past. I wouldn't say it was close but I counted rivets. The pilot muttered some words I had never heard before about 'paperwork! (innocent lad ....)
    But what better use for a piece of Frogness than this!

      Same.. 3 flights in a Chipmunk as an ATC cadet many moons ago. First was AEF, the latter 2 specifically aerobatics. I’ll always remember the ground crew strapping me in and tucking a sick bag under the strap saying ‘good luck’ 😄 Never flew in a JP though..
