    Perhaps MexDef wil continue their tradition of building their own military aircraft, it’s working for them so far!

    It always amazes me, on the other forums you can’t get away with posting pics of things that don’t belong there, but this forum is far more tollerant, thank god someone has enough sence to enjoy the quality of pics!

    Both to MM and BME, thanks guys I love the hawk and the 500MD’s

    MM: that Carribou is a civil registered one not in the inventory list of the KAF, do you have any details on it, especially why it is in camo?

    Does anyone have any pics of the KAF’s F-5’s?

    If you guys like this then you’ll love the New ERJ-190 which has just made it’s first flight 😉

    I know that LOT will use them to fly from Wasaw to Heathrow as that is on the cards after they receive their fourth example (next month I believe). Alitalia Express is also using them as is US Airways Express, examples shown below, personally I think that they don’t look good in the Alitilia colours but really fit into the USAE colours perfectly. LOT has also painted the Second plane in a special colour scheme to mark it’s entery to the Star Allience.

    Can anyone play this game?

    I guess I’ve flown a few exoctic airlines in my time, well extoic for you Northers but rather common down here.

    Some of the types I’ve flown are listed here

    Air Nuigini of Papua New Guinea (F-28/1000 Port Morsbey to Townsville)

    Sunflower Airlines of Fiji (Shorts 360, sadly no longer used, Tavenui to Nadi)

    Aeropelican Australia (DHC-6/400 my local airline when flying up to see my father, Sydney to Belmont- I actually got engaged on one of their flights a few years ago, how’s that I had a captive audience :P)

    AEW varient? Don’t you mean SAR varient, the AEW has the radome on top (like the E-3 and E-2) and is used by the US customs.

    What I’d like to see is more pics of the Kenyan Air Force (aka Force 82)

    Looks interesting, similar to the F-29 concept (wonder if Argentina is interested in that secretly).

    The twin missile rails on the tips is interesting, wouldn’t that be rather heavy for the tips in high AoA? I can see that it’s not exactly a stealth a/c due to the mid fusalage fin. Most of the frame looks like it has been a redevlopment of the basic Hornet frame, leading me to think that there maybe some US involvment in it.

    It is good to see that the Value of the Orions continues to this day, they are very capable aircraft which really do have no rival. Australia has the third largest inventory of P-3’s in the world and they get put through their paces all the time especially with Southern Ocean SAR missions.

    Papa: Thanks for the notice, but it’s going to cost bucket loads to get there from the bottom end of the world, I am planing a trip though and when I have all the details then I’ll give you a hola and maybe we could meet up 😉
