At least the crew got out safely.
Co-incidentally, my girlfriends brother is indeed flying a C-130 in Iraq, in fact he is IN 47 squadron, at the moment, and i don’t know how many on this forum can possible imagine what was going through her mind until the names were released. Theorists are entitled to their views, but please, a little respect. Not Impressed in the slightest.

Also have flown an RAF Nimrod for all of 2 minutes and 29 seconds.
In a few weeks, may get my grubby mitts onto an RAF King Air from Cranwell…
It’s a quote from Jackie Brown. But the granade would do the job i supose…
My mate suggested Slap and Stick, which i like, but keep em coming!
Whats the going rate for an (airworthy) MiG 21?
Ever since i made a 1/48 model i’ve become hooked!
Not dat i cud AFFORD to buy one, though!!!

Nothing better than breezing up the inside of a line of traffic on my bike waving and mumbling “So long, suckers” to all the car owners!!! Then i feel DAMN smug!
Found some piccies…
These are in order except for the Beemish and Italjet.

I thought it was true…
At first i thought that the C-130’s were some form of photoshop or joke but now it appears that they are indeed as posted!! Which idiot painted them in English and not in arabic. Perhaps a signal of a discontented painter?!?
So we have ex-USAF C-130’s, i take the weapons that the Iraqi military are getting are of US origin as well… What next? An old Nimitz class?

My folks have a beige 605 and a white 106. NOt very exciting cars… but dad does have his eye on a Citroen XM 2.0 diesel. Was a beautiful car if the suspension worked…
But his taste in motorcycles is MUCH better. He owns a T120 Triumph Trident, T160 Triumph Bonneville, a Triumph Twentyone, Italjet Moto scrambler, A Lambretta scooter (ex RN) an Moto Guzzi Lodola and a BMW K100.
Personally, i own a Suzuki Beemish scrambler, a Kawasaki KH125, a C100 Honda 50 and my gorgous Kawasaki LTD 454EN.
A lot, eh!?

Is there any news about the ‘new’ Iraqi flag? It was mentioned a while back but i havn’t heard anything about it since. Perhaps im being naive or something… I agree, though, they should be in desert camo.
Apu: “Now get out, and thank-you, come again!”
OOO the choice is hard… but green is just not my colour. (and i know the person who’s car the Clio is and inside it’s TOTALLY stock!! What an ungodly waste of money!

The best was someone wrote into this other forum i use saying that they:
“Inspired many people.” I don’t know about you, but the only thing they inspired ME to do, is vomit.
Oh the hilarity…
