I must get out more!!

[silverfoxcc]

Just sitting here contemplating whether to have the day in the shed, or clear out the loft, when a fly just flew past........

And that got me thinking.......

How long can a fly stay airborne before it drops with exhaustion?

Then i thought up a experiment where you put a fly in a perspex box, and have moving objects on the outside to deter it landing.
Drawbacks i can see are the variables that you dont know. How long has it been flying prior to the test, how old,give it a good nights rest etc etc

And NO i am not going to find out, but i bet someone, somewhere has!!!
