  1. Well, ok, now that you mention the war and Fawlty Towers, it has an absolutely wonderful episode, almost a war movie on its own, a brilliant litlle masterpiece.....
  2. Hey, what do you do after half an hour or so ??
  3. KELLY' HEROES !!!!!!!!!!!!! (and of course Mash..)
  4. Oh,oh Stary, but you're wearing spectacles already and do you stilll have all your own teeth ???
  5. Ha, didn't realize that, as there are lots of expressions that exist in both languages. "Monnikkenwerk" as we call it means a LOT of very precise and very time consuming work, for which in former ages only monks had the time and the persevearance to finish it at all within a lifetime !!!! One finds a lot of examples for instance in churches and monasteries.....
  6. This is what we call "monks work" , but goodlooking it is !!!
  7. Well, good fer her but I think she was very lucky. She sounds like a very good and honest person anyway, but I don't think her case was representative.
  8. Wonder what will happen in case of kidnapping or being taken prisoner....
  9. It would be wonderful to develop the device futher so that the laser also fires back into the faces & balls of the terrorists.......
  10. That, sir, is an absolutely gorgeous addition !!! A legend, the ultimate STOL plane. Somewhere in 1946 over here they flew one (that had been left by the Germans) against a good headwind about 30 kilometers west from Rotterdam to Hook of Holland and back without turning, just throttled back so that so that it had a negative groundspeed on the way back..........
  11. He's better not get divorced, would ad another item to the list.......... Deserves mentioning in FB Simon.......

  18. Great, the Spitfire had a very good wing in the field of high Mach numbers (the wing of the Attacker came almost directly from the Spit)
  19. Hmmm, with all due respect for the MiG-21BIS (which I always considered a formidable proposition in its days), even a Spitfire with a couple of modern IR missiles and a helmet mounted sight can do a lot of damage in WVR conditions, just as a Meteor could carry a nuclear weapon and I defeated a Mig-17 in a Tiger Moth once.. (it stalled into the ground trying to get into a firing position )
  20. Hey Strahl, I really think you are acting like some sort of an angel in this X mas days.......
  21. Goede Kerst vanuit Holland !!!! (if the Pope can wish everyone a meery X mas in 65 languages I feel entitled to do it in my own...)
  22. Is it as "overfuelled"as the SF1 version ? (but a great little thing anyway !!)
  23. Remark about the G91Yankee made me go back to it and fly it (and of course tweak it a bit..) and rediscover the little jewel that ErikGen made from that pit. Absolute topjob !!!!! Had forgotten about it............
  24. Landed a Vulcan with a defect left main gear (in SF1), must have a screenshot somewhere.....
  25. This, sir , is a very interesting historic item. Happened about 25 km from where I live. A lot more Ju's on the beach and at nearby former Valkenburg airfield, just a few kilometers from here....
