Avalon Airshow 2017

Post by Chopper »

A few imports from Canada, New Zealand, Singapore and the USA. Got a couple of snaps of an F-35 too. But most exciting, a Harrier from the Pommy graveyard. Forgot the camera so only dodgy phone pics this time.

Let me tell you, Gunner La-De-Dah Graham, the British Army can fight anything! Intimate or not!

You'd think with a codename like "Chopper" I'd be the same, but no. Fixed wing for me, the RNZAF C-130 was a highlight too. I thought it was pretty cool that there were 4 countries with C-130's there.

The B1 is awesome I think the RAF should buy them.
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

They would have to be getting close to their use by, by now Paul.

Apparently the Harrier left the UK with birds nesting in it.

Yeah, they are knocking on. I do think we need a long range heavy bomber though.

There is a story circumstances u laying that the TSA 2 wasn't as great as it was made out to be. Poor avionics or some such. All rumours though, we'll never know.
