One word answer IMO….. No!
If the FI were to kick off again, in the space of a day or two one suspects the Argentine Air Force might be out of commission, given their abysmal financial state, ageing aircraft and dubious serviceability!
As said in a previous post they’ve got 10 years to change that when we have a brand spanking new carrier with no fast jets to fly off them:(
Convert XH558 back to maritime. Then it can do airshows on a weekend and looking for subs during the week:diablo:
I’m in the dark on this one, but can someone tell me why we can’t scrap the GR4s and scale JFH down/back? IIRC the GR4s were going to be retired in 2014 anyway.
NEAM have the pilot’s seat in their stores.
News to me :confused:
Wow
I have a lot of time for these aircraft, did some work on them in the late 60’s early 70’s !
Keith.
We could have done with you on Saturday! Never had so much bother cleaning an a/c!:rolleyes:
Anyway, Night Photoshoot, two words to sum up – Great success! :diablo: Great fun had by all.
Photos to follow
…In which case we shall be posting an armed guard on our ‘Meatbox’ Mr Spock! Don’t want it to suddenly become a convertible….! 😉
😮 As if i’d do anything of the sort:rolleyes:
Lovely job on the Meatbox there Spock!
We can only do our best Peter, so thats much appreciated. I’m not even going to pretend being modest, I’m bloody well proud of the progress made recently. 😀
Spock
