Can someone write a new verse for the old Johnny Cash song One Piece At A Time? Remember that song?

I can just see it now. One jet engine, one bugsmasher prop engine, mag wheels from a 77 Oldsmomble Cutlass.....

Just get those trucks rolling fast enough on the runway, and you'll have lift. I'm pretty sure.

...He'd get it one blade at a time
And it wouldn't cost him a dime
You'll know it's him when he flys through your town
He's gonna fly around in style
He's gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause he'll have the only flying windmill around...

Now you done did it. Can't run for office now.

The blade pictured would make a great main wing - think soaring glider. The problem is finding the left hand one for the other side of the plane.

So you can change the pitch of the blade in flight depending on the barometric pressure and bomb load temperature over the target zone.
