Long ago, when my partner used to solve these puzzles in books, I often looked over her shoulder and said, "it looks like a helicopter."#5: Gitte Olesen (granny40) on Nov 29, 2006 [SPOILER]
This is because (1) at some point, most puzzles look like black blobs with black lines looking out, so they do sort of look like helicopters, and (2) it's rude to tell the person actually solving the puzzle what it really looks like before they've figured it out, don't you think?
So anyway, this puzzle looks like a helicopter in because so many other puzzles did.

Fun!#11: Jan Wolter (jan) on Dec 31, 2009
This puzzle was marked as unsolved, but I remember solving this one a long time ago, before I created "Ode to a Pixel" where I made a reference to your comment. Hmmmm. I have noticed that a lot of puzzles that I solved around a year ago are showing up as "not yet solved" when I search for puzzles. Not all, but quite a few. I wonder why. Do you know, Jan? If you don't read this here, Jan, I'll post it on the forum.
No idea. I haven't seen that happening.#12: Debbie Weidig (dweidig) on Feb 21, 2010 [SPOILER]
