Wow,cool Viggen.Really nice looker.Gotta miss her now she,s gone.
The RAF could have done far worse than use them in service.

ian, me thinks the viggen qualifies for this years Telford theme. might be worth reporting its exsistance to the theme co ordinators mate.
I always hope for the best.

Don't think so, Glorious Leader, I thought the theme was only open to new builds......

Nice Viggen and, for me, that's classic RAF camo and not this boring grey stuff with one washed out roundel on the upper port wing.

Spot on...what the hell is it with those pink things on the new jets anyway?...god-awful markings they are!...grrr...one of my pet hates with the modern RAF schemes!... :angry:

anyway...cool looking Viggy... :mellow:
It's a big, wide world out there...so if it's all the same to you I'll just stay indoors!

Nice one, Ian ! Would look good with a couple of LGBs strapped to her as well.....love the pic of the underside. Sure would have given the Jag force a run for their money, eh ?

:wub:

Great looking Bronco and Dog as well.

Woof, woof  (where's Rad when you need him ? ;D)

Well this "top dog" has no memory of a "new builds only" rule. Never applied before so I don't see why it should now ?

Bring her along I say

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Not so oh mighty guardian of the coastline. I have already asked the question and the answetr is that if it fits in the theme it can go on the stand. A number of my previous builds are going to have to be dusted off and tarted up for the display. So I expect to see it on display

Sure, Martin...but you still would have, as the Jaguar is just too sexy of an aeroplane to omit from any orbat !

And retired waaaaay to early......
