1960 Era Royal Navy Launching and Recovering Aircraft
Slartibartfast replied to Geary's topic in Military and General Aviation
I wouldn't say it was good looking purposeful yes and brutal but good looking not really... but thats my IMHO... Saying that when the Ark went out last... She had an Bent wing fighter that proved that a brick could fly with enough thrust... A plane that was ugly from every angle (Not my words as I think the Bucc looks better than the A-6) a Turbo prop which defied explantation and was a master of Origami, the wing folding was a masterclass in Origami... and a Seaking which only looks good when its coming to get you out of the sea after being there for awhile in a lifevest and a one man dinghy... One Admiral when the F-4 arrived actually asked if the plane had been delivered the right way up... -
Currently its the Mk1 Eyeball with a battered Mk1 brain attached... I will be following this thread seriously though as I need to get a new camera... but it needs to be rugged enough to handle being on a motorbike...

1960 Era Royal Navy Launching and Recovering Aircraft

Okay the Prop job was the Gannet AEW Twin Turboprop aircraft... both engines linked allows the pilot to shut one down to extend endurance... Strange looking aircraft even before they stuck the Radar underneath it... just a note the Radar used in the Gannet was first used in the Douglas Skyraider AEW was then moved into the Gannet and finally was installed into the Shackleton (Which dates back to the Mancaster bomber which was the twin engined version of the Lancaster bomber!!!)... -

Too right... I was invited to play Rugby for York University in a match about 20 years ago... Found out it was against Lancaster University... Guess who didn't play for York that day turned out there was a Yorkshire type on Lancasters Team made it easier to just swap sides... My Girlfriend at the time couldn't see what all the fuss was about... -

Must admit in Fallout 3 I was never a poor man... I had money in abundance... and enough Ammo to wipe out half the map and then some... As to using Cheat codes must admit I have looked at a few walkthroughs for a couple of older games but thats it... Fallout 3 I played it Vanilla the only way... And I will be doing so again when New Vegas comes out on October the 23rd!!!

A store that sells husbands has just opened where a woman may go to choose a husband from among many men. The store is composed of 6 floors, and the men increase in positive attributes as the shopper ascends the flights. There is, however, a catch. As you open the door to any floor you may choose a man from that floor, but if you go up a floor, you cannot go back down except to exit the building. So a woman goes to the shopping center to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These men have jobs. The woman reads the sign and says to herself, "Well, that's better than my last boyfriend, but I wonder what's further up?" So up she goes. The second floor sign reads: Floor 2 - These men have jobs and love kids. The woman remarks to herself, "That's great, but I wonder what's further up?" And up she goes again. The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love kids and are extremely good looking. "Hmmm, better" she says. "But I wonder what's upstairs?" The fourth floor sign reads: Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking and help with the housework. "Wow!" exclaims the woman, "very tempting. BUT, there must be more further up!" And again she heads up another flight. The fifth floor sign reads: Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love kids, are extremely good looking, help with the housework and have a strong romantic streak. "Oh, mercy me! But just think... what must be awaiting me further on?" So up to the sixth floor she goes. The sixth floor sign reads: Floor 6 - You are visitor 6,875,953,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please.

Personal Rule... I like a Challenge... normally though in my strike sorties I normally have Harm's or Shrikes mounted to deal with persistant SAM Sites...
