Whilst watching realistic documentaries of military flying like Top Gun, I've heard expressions like '2 minutes to Bingo' being used.

What does it mean..?

It's the turn around and go home point for fuel...unless you want to risk walking.<img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>

So, you have trouble. We all have trouble. Build a bridge and get over it.

Bingo is your "planned return Fuel State". basiclly play time ends and you head home.

Or... Pushing a Mustang at 3 am, after tossen Brews in Park City.

Snipe loved it, he kept us from hitting the curb as we mushed a mile to the pump!

Thanks to all who explained Bingo (even Prkiii who seems to be on something)...

It turns out that the game of 'Bladder Bingo' we have invented for long road trips is therefore totally wrong.

We set the timer from when your bladder starts sending SOS transmissions and then count how many truck stops we can drive by before you REALLY have to stop.

So far we have not 'Splashed one Bogey', but it's been close a few times..!
