The downside of flying at over Mach 3+ at 70,000ft.......a little bit of paint peel :surrender:

For me, it's gotta be the F111, when it came out it looked so damn futuristic.

Worked with an Aussie squadron of these at Nellis AFB on Exercise Red Flag way back in 89. Weird how they would eject the whole crew cabin rather than individual seats

Always happy to help if I can.

If the forum helped you, why not help the forum back. Thats the Z4 way! :thumbsup:

Well I don't like any of them (except the lovely Diane) as all of the modern ones keep 'practicing' their flying skills directly over my house and they are fecking noisy and annoying.

I live about 8 miles from the mouth of the 'Wash', where there is feck all for miles. So why do the jets insist on doing their 'manouevres' directly over the town? If it is to make us feel safe, then it ain't working. When the feckers climb vertically with their afterburners on, it rattles my windows and I can't hear the telly, or anything else. This is almost an everyday occurrence (except if the weather's bad). It was interesting for the first few days, soon gets old TBH. And the vast majority are yanks which is even more annoying! :headbang:
Let's just hope the Russians of Chinese don't invade on a rainy day, eh? :roll:
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

F31 320i. Good car.
E89 20i Now fully dried
Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
Mazda3 sold
