remember the zero hangars at iwakuni?
if you were shitfaced enough and you timed it just right you could get a bicycle to just the right speed to get to the top. thing was, if you were too fast you got airborne. then it wasn't pretty.

with a kickstand up his ass

Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni

Through the years, the Zero Hangar Visitor Center has remained a silent reminder of the station's past. The hangar is dedicated to the preservation of peace through mutual understanding and cooperation between our two great nations. The full-scale model of a Zero fighter in the Visitor Center is authentic in every detail. The Toho Company Ltd., donated the aircraft, which was manufactured by the Mitsubishi Corporation.
