Ok I am a fighter pilot.
I was once held to blame for the loss of an entire Eagle Squadron, just the day before it was to be handed over to the Yank’s 😮
And I copped a demotion for it, but I made my way back up the list in the END :rolleyes: .
I also shot down a 262 at one point.
And flew a cosmic jet aswell, and knocked bit’s off or destroyed another different jet to the 262.
And I was even mate’s and flew with Dogsbody 😎 .
Now I really gotta crash, I am completely Knackered it’s 2.07 am,
Good Luck and ” Gut Nacht ” to you all :dev2:
I’ll be back!! 😉

I suffer from a few problem’s, M.S., Coeliac and Sciatica are the main pain’s inn the blooody arsse 😡 .
So as a result I spend a lot of time on the Royal Throne(thunder box in aussie:dev2: ) and just read away the day’s and night’s.
Not quite up to old wacko Howy THE AVIATOR’S record on the loo yet:eek: , but came damn close a few time’s:rolleyes: , no gold phone in there like Howy, but I had me Optus spare phone.:D
Yes and I think Tony was a Gliding champ as well, and went back to champion’s ship’s in Germany at some point.
100 point’s to you Manta,

He was also a Grand Prix driver i believe.
I read something about him years ago and it just sort a stuck.
I was plane mad years ago and read anything and everything about anything to do with aviation.Lived and breathed it.
Just rekindling my interest on here.

The Jet fighter’s of both side’s never had any real combat against one another so to speak by the look’s of it, a pitty really, but I read some jock’s in the flying jet rock’s nailed them some ballroom Blitz bomber’s 😉 .
