Question

Reinvented old boot.

Winged, attempt to shoot.

Unused metric function,

Great geodetic construction

Shake them to the core,

Long after the boar.

Blitz with a grand slam,

Bounced right in - dam!

So cap-it-al. Planned expire,

Was not my real desire.

Even after my death,

People still hold there breath.

If you know me say my name.

My life was fun, I won the game,

By designed me ending too,

Given the answer - ninety two

That must be it. He died at 92. I didn't know he worked on the Wellington airframe (1st verse). I still don't get the third verse though...

Well done d3k3 - definatley a riidle made for the likes of you

3rd verse went askew - he predicted the end of his own death more/less so WON - my own words. I and I was assing to the design part - I just needed to fit 92 in somewhere - maybe not! The capital reference was to suggest there were some capital letters. - Definitley should have stopped at two verses.

btw he left school at 17 and went on to become quite a desigener of planes and bombs - the bouncing bomb athe Grand Slam Tall boy
