I seem to remember an occasion just after the Falklands War, when the R.A.F. were nailing sidewinders onto anything flying, a Nimrod claiming two 'kills' as Tornados carelessly overshot it dead ahead.

Top Gun
We know it wasn't P/O Wales as he's with the WIGS winning the War on Drugs. So who was it? Will he/she be in the MoD News next week?
To paraphrase KK, I'd just love it if it were an RN pilot... :E :E :E |
Was it a Tornado F3 or a GR4 the Tucano got the guns kill on?.....
|
F3 or GR4?!
Good God man, I hope it's the latter!
F3s at low level. Whatever next?! BV:E PS. Do you really think AOC 1 Gp would give a sh1t?! |
Probably just bollocked his guide dog at the de-brief.

Gutsiest move I ever saw, Mav. :}

I must say it's a while since I left the cockpit but I didn't realise that Tucanos and VC10s had guns! |
Do you also remember the US aircraft carrier vs the lighthouse? Happened around the same time....

Ahmmm No, I'm not, I'm not involved with any air training corps, or any military for that matter. I'm just a military aircraft fan I'm affraid. Maybe in the next life. =)
