    I just look in this page:

    http://www.aracuan.com.ar/matriculados.htm

    The designer of the plane was Ariel Ciro Rietti, appeared to be a UFO researcher, built this plane on the roof of your house!

    http://juper.tripod.com/rietti.html

    En 1975 sorprendió a los porteños al bajar con una grúa al “Golondrina V”, un avión que fabricó en la azotea de su casa, situada en pleno barrio de Caballito. Era un pequeño y versátil aeroplano monoplaza que “lo lleva a Ud. a Mar del Plata (400 km.) en dos horas, gasta 32 litros de nafta y no
    pagamos peaje”, decía Rietti ejemplificando sus virtudes.

    No conforme con ello, dos años después sus vecinos quedaron azorados por otra innovación cuando salió a recorrer las calles con su Ariel-RA, primer auto argentino impulsado a energía solar, en el que viajaron celebridades como Juan Manuel Fangio, Arturo Illia y Jorge Luis Borges.

    Google translate:

    In 1975 the Buenos Aires surprised with a crane to lower the “Swallow V”, an aircraft manufactured in the roof of his house, located in the neighborhood of Caballito. It was a small and versatile car that airplane “takes you to a Mar del Plata (400 km.) Within two hours, spend 32 liters of gasoline and
    pay toll, “said Rietti exemplifying virtues.

    Not content with that, two years after their neighbors were bewildered by another innovation when it came to walk the streets with Ariel-RA, Argentine first car powered with solar energy, which traveled celebrities like Juan Manuel Fangio, and Jorge Luis Arturo Illia Borges.

    Another quizz for when, where and why, not what.

    Why is this plane being fueled out in the open like this?
    What was happening?

    Thank you! I’m glad to see some SHAR’s with a sensible loadout.

    I never understand you Brits sometimes…you take the gun from the Harrier GR.7/9 and you limit the FA.2 to two of the three weapon types it was cleared for at any one time. No love for your own wonderful airplane. 🙂

    I´m not british!!!

    But I´m a Harrier lover!!!:D

    What a great shot! I wonder what the reasoning was for the AMRAAM fit in that particular case.

    I bet some of the FA.2 fans around here probably get a little weepy eyed thinking about it…

    (For the record, I feel your pain as I like the Sea Harrier too.)

    One thing that always bugged me about the FA.2 was how AIM-9’s and AIM-120’s couldn’t be carried together while the 30-mm cannons were also fitted. You had to pick two of the three.

    With the AV-8B you get the 25-mm gun, plus AIM-120, and AIM-9. 🙂

    A nice package I must say.

    Indian are doing that with Sea Harrier LUSH, one pilon with a twin launcher with Derby + Pythoon 4-5

    Hi Roberto do the multiple Eeks mean good or bad (in your opinion)?

    There are exclamation marks, I am stunned and speechless by these great pictures of the glorious Vulcan

    I really think they are the most beautiful pictures I have never seen a Vulcan!!!
