Good PR for the fire service , they need to do something to justify the overblown , non contributed , pensions they are allowed to claim at the age of 45 .Not to mention the 30 paid sick days they are allowed to claim each year . ( or is that the Police force ) Oh no they are allowed to go on a 12 month paid sabbatical !!!!!!!!

Argentina is Skint , Broke , Brassic unless some one gives them a great load on Tick ,They aint buying Nuffink !!
The Hillman Minx would still be a world seller !! ( in knockdown kit form )
The Vulcan is a ” Flag Waver ” at a time when we needed/need it most, a product of British Engineering .when we had True Engineers & an aircraft industry .
A time when we did the job from start to finish ….not the pathetic industry we have today , screwing wings onto a large plastic French airliner or sticking the nose cone onto a Rafale lookalike …..
What do you mean , you want the Malverns back ??????
Oh sorry !! slight misunderstanding !!

Its a good Forum …& some people are Aviation purists —I for one didnt join to browse dusty old tombes in a basement …
As a member on other forums —what is needed is a sense of humour , a basic interest in the subject , respect for other members postings with a small smattering of sarcasm. . However what is guaranteed to hiss me ( a maybe others off ) is long serving members , who wrongfully think this is THEIR Forum !! who are so far up their own bums , that they will wake up one morning wearing themselves as a top hat !!
Happy New Year !!!
A well flown Mig 21 is worth half a dozen badly flown F22’s or F35’s . Apart from the fact that most F15’s &22’s are hangar queens because they are over complicated & , 22’s didnt work in the first place & most US aircraft technicians are not the best in the world . In fact most of them couldnt pass a simple trade test !!!!
Mig 21’s are run , by most airforces , like 50’s & 60’s American cars in Cuba . Duck tape/ epoxy resin & a big tin of Hammerite ..& the ******s still do 1500mph ….
What goes round come round –The West is now designing Drones !!! Yea most being SE5a’s & Sopwith Camels with a computer on board …& made of kevlar !!
Give China & India another couple of years & the west /usa is going to look pretty ” Old Hat “
There is such a thing as being ” Too Clever “
