RE: Favourite airshow moment? (So far!)
[updated:LAST EDITED ON 16-01-02 AT 06:09 PM (GMT)]RIAT Lynx pair? Missed due to being inside a KC-10, but I did hear one of the aircrew with his videocamera point out the open door saying something along the lines of “he’s gonna pull the ******* rotors off!” and “it’s not meant to do that”
As far as airshows,
My first Bruntingthorpe trip,
Waddo ’00 (as I got out the car we were buzzed by 2 Tornado F.3s doing a fast pass, also my first major airshow)
Valley ’01 (appauling weather but the Reds were fantasic, I swear the solos swapped paint on those opposition passes!)
RIAT ’01 ( My first stealth, my first airshows with cadets among other things)
Nottingham open day (Posing before a lesson by the AvGas tank!!)
Roll on next season!!

RE: Anyone got a picture?
There is alot of misinformation going around about cutbacks. I heard they are going to close Brize….hmmm the RAF’s largest base and their going to close it……I don’t think so. Why couldn’t the money from the appualing dome, or that even worse bridge be spent on something proper.
Come back Winston! The government is full off arty farty poofters!
RE: Whattya doing out there!?
I have been trying to work my new camera. That and backing up my files for the impending formatting of my hard drive 🙁 Apart from that I’m throwing yet more cash at bike in the hope it will work for a few more weeks.
As far as the website goes a major update should be coming soon.

RE: WWII Air-Sea Pilot Resque
I remember hearing something about droping life rafts from underneath aircraft or something, is this true?
RE: Lightnings
Shell provide the fluids etc for the lightnings so you know.
But jeez lads! Whats next a bloody nike swoosh replacing the roundels!
And looking at the T.5s the civvie reg has been toned down and is quite small but on the F.6 thats just uncalled for! It looks like it was just thrown into place!
Cummon lads, it’s great that their flying but please please sort the paint jobs!
Lightnings
How about get rid of those bloody awful civve registrations and paint the Lightnings in proper colours not some business brand cr*p! They should look like they once did. Polished metal, yes looks nice but does not wear very well, and no one wants to see silver paint like some Lightnings. Dark sea grey all round!! Either that or some nice squadron paint jobs e.g 56 Firebirds checkerboard scheme
Flame away lads!

RE: Airline food

It looks like someone has already eaten it and not agreed with it! lol
Always thought the Britannia food was ok, but the AA stuff was great compaired to the normal prosessed reformed mank!
Talking to the crew of a KC-10 at RIAT it sounds like they get the good stuff, shrimp in butter! Very nice! lol
