No relation to the bloke who designed the eponymous weapon? It could give the AK-47 a run for its money WRT time in service...

Grey, yeah I suppose, but I hear the fancy dinner room has a new cook! His name’s Madsen. Maybe one day we grunts get something decent to eat.
Maybe. I've heard that he makes some kind of special soup with a secret ingredient... We must try! :D

Who knows? Maybe our new cook has, after all, a looong family relation with the military, including a former Denmark Defense Minister! Beside the special soup I've also heard that he's full of secrets and seems to always know more than he tells...
We should try asking that tall redhead. They were enjoying a quite lengthy conversation the other day... ;)

May I have your attention, please?  We are gathered here today to invest Jitter with the Rulership of their very own Derelict Airport!  She has already claimed Joensuu Airport, now inscribed in the roll on the first post of this thread.
Up to you now to deal with the bear problem, eh?

Thank you Wave!

Fear not, I have been tinkering with an old jet engine I found in the hangar. That bird won’t ever fly again, but the engine will be an interesting surprise for the bears, if they ever venture into my realm again!

!!!  :sparkle: Congratulations Jitter  :sparkle: !!!

Ruling your own airport, and of course the Joensuu one! Wonderful choice!
Now I'm curious if your plan with the jet engine includes sucking the bears or pushing them...
Anyway I'm keeping a good distance from the hangar when I get there for the party. :)

BTW I may be a bit late, but I want also to congratulate our esteemed bard  :sparkle:corncobman :sparkle:, that had also conquered one (yet to be disclosed) airport, back in March!

Hooray, congrats and confetti Jitter! :sparkle:
Those bears better stay off your airport, or Sigrun´s most-best -thought-out plan might not be needed anymore...

Thank you all!

The bears will be sucked in* and shredded. Any non-immunes are strictly prohibited from ever approaching the engine, as the remains will be disposed of simultaneously to the shredding! Resulting in a brief moment of disgusting, infectious confetti**!

* yes, just like in the opening of Lost. That was a memorable scene! If only the series had been too.

** yes, I feel fine! Balanced even! Why do you ask? O_O O_O O_O
