I saw this when it was posted on the mil forum. It is engrossing without any added background music and such!

Hey Wholi the F-104 has a hook... did you ever try a landing on the boat to show 'em who's boss?

We invented the Carrier and the steam Catapult yer know, and the Jet Engine,oh yes and the Electric Light Bulb.
:rolleyes:

You forgot the mirror landing system, the angled flight deck and parliamentary democracy, Mr Draper. Not so sure about the light bulb...

What happened to all your catapults?? The yanks, the commies and even the frogs still use 'em.... :{

The cuddins are the carrier kings and all yours are only for junk-jets now.

and the Jet Engine,

Apparently Dr. F. Stolze designed the first true gas turbine engine... (http://inventors.about.com/library/inventors/blenginegasturbine.htm) even the Greeks were onto it years earlier when you lot were swinging in the trees. No points for taking someone else's idea and putting it into a mota-plane and saying you thunk it up.

Apparently the light bulb is being blamed for global warming and phased out all over the word in favour of something more green and less unsavoury... :rolleyes:

Those new efficient light bulbs, the one's that contain mercury. Now that's what I call environmentally friendly!

Whale oil lamps perchance?:)

Swing wings also courtesy of Mr B Wallis.

A failure of the British Govt yet again that the Sceptics took advantage of (VTOL also I think re Harrier and its developments)....
