Lots of Russki aircraft..

I’m not sure you can really blame Hungarians for being anti-Soviet! :diablo:

That I can understand, it’s the anti everyone else that gets me, I’m just off to find out who’s new on the list, probably the Burmese, I’ve never come across a race like it, I daren’t even mention the vitriol that was expressed at any one who didn’t speak english while having a ‘pleasant’ walk through Cambridge yesterday, it was a nightmare.
As for the comments at the American Cemetery, well, I can’t repeat them here, they desperately wanted to go there, for what reason I don’t know, possibly for a good old Hungarian moan, lot’s of respect for white, English/American Anglo Saxons, despite us being ‘the enemy’ since WW1, but quite frankly, I’ve never met such a bunch of rascists in my life, think of me at the barbie tonight, I already have a headache just thinking about it.

Looks amazing, can’t they be persuaded to repeat it for the Queens birthday flypast over here, mixed in with our usual suspects and the Russian Knights flying with the Reds. Chuck in a few F-15’s from Lakenheath as well, though they may end up over Windsor Castle by mistake, it could be the greatest flypast ever, followed up by the entire BBMF with former Red Air Force Yak 3’s on the Lancs wingtips. It could always be classed as a tribute to the Romanovs, or possibly farewell to that stalwart of democracy Mr Putin.
Wishfull thinking, or is it because I’ve had to put up with the cynicism of my VERY anti Soviet Hungarian relatives for the past few days, it does your head in after a bit.
