My favorite moment in Nuts and Bolts

I really like Nuts and Bolts, but several little issues keep it from being a perfect game.  One of those issues is combat, especially of the vehicular manslaughter kind.  Aiming is damn near impossible, especially when moving.  That's why I normally hate combat missions with a passion.  But last night, I was a man on a quest for Jiggies, and I was not to be denied by anything in my way.  Yes, I was probably slightly drunk.  
 
The Jiggy in question comes from the farm area.  Basically, you have to defend a farm's statue from Gruntilda's bombers.  At first, I tried an aerial attack using my baby, a giant helicopter-looking thing I call Thumper.  Didn't work.  Added a grenade turret to Thumper, and did some plane killin' from there.  Still ultimately failing the mission, I was growing frustrated until I thought of an insane solution.  Why not build something that could protect the statue? 
 
I proceeded to visit the handy dandy ol' workshop.  I started with a flat top of heavy bricks, adding a few rows of lighter ones around the heavies for extra width.  From there, I added four support columns of light bricks, each about seven bricks high.  With a few light bricks left, I added some horizonatl bars to the mix for added protection from the sides.  On the top, I added propellers and Banjo's seat.  Under the top, I loaded it with engines and fuel.  When I took the bad boy out on the track, sure enough, it flew - maybe not straight as an arrow (OK, it looked like a bumblebee had dipped into grandpa's cough medicine), but the sucker flew! 
 
I took the flying tower to the mission, and lo and behold, it worked.  It was too slow to nab the TT trophy, but I got the Jiggy, which is damn well good enough for me.
