At least it isn’t going to be another bleedin book on Spitfires, there are more than enough as it is!:diablo:

Can we assume anything with this government? It is painful to think of all the numbers that have been retired over the years, the auxiliary squadrons etc there are only so many numbers to go round and with even more cuts I hate to say it but I could see the day when 1, 3 and 4 are all just a bunch of lads sitting in a darkened room controlling UAVs that are somewhere else and that would be the sum total of the Royal Air Force.

Hi

And would it still be flying now .

With the current government and the scrapping of the Harrier fleet, what do you think? :diablo:

Personally I doubt it very much but sure others can answer in detail.

Can you also find good copies of the Hawker and Supermarine logos?

obviously the proposal will go across his desk eventually

Is there going to be anything left apart from some tumbleweed to take photos of now? 🙁

would we be this upset if the Tornado fleet was axed?

Getting rid of the last great British aircraft, the Harrier, despite the nostalgia it’s still a mistake.

But then we don’t have the same industry we used to

Aren’t we scrapping the Trident submarines and replacing them with divers using snorkels and RPG’s?

I suppose this is the only option left to the armed forces at this rate
