F4-E & F16's
What a beautiful sound.
Where I am currently (on top of a mountain), every week day am over flown by F4's & F16's. Unfortunately I only catch the tail end of them as I run outside hearing those GE engines tear the air apart. I had forgotten how loud the F4's are. Even so I do believe the Rolls Royce engined F4's were louder than the GE engined F4's. Am I correct? |
F-4s??
Where exactly are you:confused: |
Where am I?
Am in Crete.
F16's overhead as I write. Can hear twin engined FJ's landing in the distance. The overhead clouds are causing the noise to reverberate even more. Brilliant. |
Ah, makes more sense:)
Would agree on the noise, I though Speys were much louder than the J-79. Less smokey tho'.. |
Flights from Chania
Currently all flying from Chania.
Glad my memory wasn't letting me down. I also agree about smoke from speys. |
A bit like you Chris, I was confused by hval's profile - for a moment I thought it might be a newly formed Scottish Independent Air Force...

If it were the case we would have highly technologicaly advanced biplanes, fuelled by buckfast and mad dog 2020.

Well..... I was at a garden centre just south of Chippenham at about 1000 today (I was dragged there by Mrs N honest...) when a jet flew overhead. Looking up and saw an whar certainly looked like an F4 to me! Looked like it was heading to the secret Wilts airfield.

now now hval
"If it were the case we would have highly technologicaly advanced biplanes, fuelled by buckfast and mad dog 2020." I think any Scottish Air Force, might manage to have more up to date aircraft then todays RAF, especialy in air transport. For all the scottish out there , what would you have aircraft wise in the soon to be formed Scottish Air Force (SAF) |
Well I believe you November.
In a bizarre coincidence for the thread originator i've just been told there is, apparently, an F-4 wazzing around SW England at the moment. Anone know what that's all about? Presume it's German. |
Yes, German F4....working out of Lyneham for next two weeks apparently....over here for some simulated warfare trials with ships off Portland/southwest
|
OK, for the sake of argument:
Scotland get independence....... FREEEDOM!!!!!!! and F4s. England, wants to show, once and for all, 'You're Ours....always have been, always will be!' So: F4 vs F3 ( probably helped by some Typhoons... if they can be arsed, and aren't too busy at an airshow, or making a TV documentary, or landing gear-up.....again!) Result: Scotland back under English Rule, Several RAF ACES (and a Typhoon ACE), Scotish Parliment Destroyed, Hagis banned, Scotish Flag banned, Scotland out of the World Cup.... Ooops (That's happened... sorry, this is a Joke post). Welsh capitulate, in favour of close harmony singing. Finally a truely 'United Kingdom'. History, it writes it's self. Advo |
One went over Chesil Beach, (Portland;)) 1610 ish today.(Dutch warship out in Lyme Bay?) Can only have been a "tomb" given all the smoke coming out of it! Fantastic sound though!! Now my son, in the car with me, knows what a real aircraft sounds like.:D
