pretty sure the intended replacement for the canberra was Tsr-2 bex, 🙂
for an example go to the history page of the below link 🙂
http://www.thunder-and-lightnings.co.uk/tsr2/index.html
also the wikipedia link
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TSR-2
for the life of me i cannot remember who told me about the TSR-1 and TSR-2 designations, it seems logical that the canberra would have been designated as TSR-1 if their planned replacement was TSR-2, otherwise i would have thought that the MoD would have called TSR-2, TSR-1 instead :diablo:
*sigh* it seems as if im not going to live that mistake down :rolleyes: as it says in the title, Raf tornadoes, and unless you watch it all the way through and freeze it, its not easy to see otherwise 😮
I thought it was tactical strike and reconaissance 2 because the canberra was Tsr.1 and the Tsr.2 was going to be its sucessor? :confused:
come to think of it, im pretty sure ive seen a picture of an Raf buccaneer about 4 inches of the tarmac?
so any ideas as to when she will be flying then? 😀
any ideas what the one at the bottom is? never seen that type before 😮
seeing Black-6 at 1994 flying legends, i think. i just remember that i thought she sounded and looked like the most beautiful thing i had ever seen or heard, i remember being completely awestruck, my dad had to pick me up and carry me on, otherwise i would have stayed there all day. ill never forget it 😀
i had to admit the last one didn’t look like a twin engine aircraft, the angle that the vid is taken from makes it difficult to tell what they are, my bad about the phantoms though….still flying like that deserves a couple of mentions not just one?:diablo: cheers
in addition to the three insane tornado pilots in above, how about some mental german pilots in their F-4’s???

Best one in that is where an F-14 does a flyby at no more than 40 feet, between two ships (below the carriers main deck :eek:) jsut breaking the sound barrier, its awesome because the water below him is being affected by his shockwave :diablo:
What looks to be a C-130 on finals to Eielson Air Force Base in Alaska, found whilst searchin to see if i could find KB-29 “Lady Of The Lake” which is just on the surface of one of the surrounding lakes,
damn, the fullsize picture is too large 😡 oh well there’s the link ^ and the cut down photo (sorry i really couldn’t be bothered to shrink it, 3 and a half hours of chemistry A Level exams and whatnot fries your brain! :p ) :D:D:D
thanks for the info guys, what’s it like being strapped into one on full reheat, or are there no words that can do this experience any justice 😀
whats with the tyres on the port wing?:confused: i wish that i had been born 40 years ago so i could have flown one of them on active duty, that would have been awesome!:diablo:
😮 it looks like they have all been abducted by either a UFO or a large bedspread :diablo:
just having a peer for the hali now, any idea what her approx location of the forest is, as it does seem to be rather a large place 😀
Im pretty sure that these aren’t radial engines 😀 😀 😀
