In line with the discussion on rubber duckies...we witnessed a rubber duckie
being "taken out" (along with the pilot) during the warbird races at the
Midwest Slope Challenge this past weekend!  An errant foamie warbird (perhap
two) nailed the antenna and broke it off along with part of the radio!

Care to elaborate, George?
