Not that, but your previous guess contains a precious element...

To catapult something - trash bags into a landfill?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #27 on:** July 05, 2009, 08:27:14 AM »

Is really out there such a device?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #28 on:** July 05, 2009, 08:37:05 AM »

I have no idea - that would be fun to watch, wouldn't it?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #29 on:** July 05, 2009, 08:41:21 AM »

..and the day you don't need the catapult anymore, just remove the brakes!

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #30 on:** July 05, 2009, 08:59:38 AM »

Hmmm....

Could this have been used to test aircraft brakes?

Perhaps, to test automobile brakes?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #37 on:** July 09, 2009, 08:28:08 AM »

Not that....

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #38 on:** July 09, 2009, 08:48:24 AM »

As the tree said to the lumberjack, I'm stumped.

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #39 on:** July 09, 2009, 08:53:54 AM »

You were really there...I don't know how to give a clue without revealing too much...it is not for the aircraft brakes, but....

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #40 on:** July 09, 2009, 08:58:12 AM »

Aircraft engines?

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #41 on:** July 09, 2009, 08:58:33 AM »

Aircraft tires?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #42 on:** July 09, 2009, 09:00:25 AM »

Not engines or tires...you were closer with the brakes, not fisically....

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #43 on:** July 09, 2009, 09:01:31 AM »

Braking parachutes?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #44 on:** July 09, 2009, 09:03:34 AM »

Right direction, wrong item.

Otto Puzzell · « **Reply #45 on:** July 09, 2009, 09:11:50 AM »

Jet engine thrust-reversers?

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #46 on:** July 09, 2009, 09:19:50 AM »

...all the guesses are in the correct direction, braking chutes, brakes, jet reverse...but there is another, common, device to stop a plane....

Allemano · « **Reply #47 on:** July 09, 2009, 09:26:57 AM »

first when Otto gives up I'll post my presumption..

Paul Jaray · « **Reply #48 on:** July 09, 2009, 09:57:49 AM »

Technically this is always open to all and Otto will get a point for spotting the 'launching aircraft' pourpose...but I respect your decision.
