Ok so some of my ideas may be a bit wild, but hey that's the type of guy I am. I don't see anything wrong with Macchi's suggestion of a 747 tanker, except when he reckons it could be used for CAS! What a numbnut! Everone knows you should strap 24 ASRAAMs to it and a couple of those Meteors and it would rock!!! Ok I know that is stupid.

I'll be serious for 1 minute. Fill an F111 to the brink with a buddy refueling drouge, let him fill 2 FA18, then sprint back the 200nm to the tanker track, fill up and come back out to meet the next pair. With self defences and an ability to run fast, what better tac tanker could you get??

By the way, a name for macchi's 747 could be the mega-leer!!!!

Getting Closer

CessnaDude did you get the name "Mega-leer" from that well known publication - The BAJA

If so, that narrows your identity down nicely!

Keep the posts coming! They crack me up
