hmm the question on my mind is why did i look at the title and think of womens…. never mind

on a more serious note despite the excellence of german engineering i fail to believe something has weathered so well after 65 years

i had wondered why Britains deliveries are due to start after that of some level 2 or 3 partners (whose requirement lets face it isn’t as desperate as Britains)

In case of emergency, how long will it take to have SHARs back? And what about the pilots?
Consider this example: Argentina invades Falkland again in 2013. Will we see some SHARs in the british naval task force?

the idea doesn’t work, Dire state of the argentine forces at the moment makes it impossible.

is it just me or does anyone else think she is making a casserole?

RAF:
Attack- Tornado GR4, Harrier GR9, Buccaneer

Fighter- F4 Phantom

Interceptor- Tornado, Lightning (with extra missile pylons!)

Cargo- C-17, C-130

Helicopter- CH-47, Sea King

Electronic- E-3D

Tanker- VC-10

Reconnaissance- Nimrod, Tornado GR4A

Bomber- HP Victor, Vulcan

I realise some people might say in a fantasy RAF why not the TSR-2? As it never entered service non of its systems or capability was proven.

even if you dont want to include the concepts that never made it into service you are forgetting Short Belfast in the cargo role, Merlin is an improvement over sea kings

when you look at A2G you are spoilt for choice.. Bucc’s (or P.150), TSR-2, F-111K, Tornado’s

CAS, Either Jag’s or Harriers(or P.1154 but being able to shift about at 900kt’s doesn’t change anything)

It’s not quite the same with A2A.. Lightning(50 years old, 2 archaic missiles[haha images of F.6’s with ASRAAM’s climbing to intercept a blackjack just entered my head, now thats pretty!!! )..
F-4J(UK)(even if you could fit the Blue Vixens from the SHAR’s you’ve still got something almost as old as lightning and it doesn’t have the ceiling..
Tornado Mk.3(F.3 on full A/B paired with ASRAAM’s is a great combination but it’s still lacking the ceiling and it’s not a truely amazing fighter no matter how much you tart it up)..
Typhoon F.2 (nobody is happy to be associated with this can we say P.110 or P.120 and avoid the stigma)

Cargo as i said Short Belfast and Globemasters

I’m with flex on this, there is no ugly woman from the Balkan States, (Serbia, Bosnia etc) they are simply stunning.
Also the French, we fly to France all the time and the French dispatchers are always gorgeous, knocks socks of the English cabin crew 😀

the correct terminology is trolly dollies and are you that suprised? im pretty sure in the UK Sleazyjets policy is the trolly dollies must have a face the same colour as the aircrafts tailplane

It would appear Steve that you have the same prison system as we have here. No wonder crime is on the increase. There is no deterant anymore.

well that certainly seems to be the case for women, unless there are some randy, violent screws. blokes still have the attractive proposition of having an **** the size of a tennis ball by the end of the year
