Too bloody right it should be.
If you love, love without reservation; If you fight, fight without fear - THAT is the way of the warrior

If you go into battle knowing you will die, then you will live. If you go into battle hoping to live, then you will die

Make it international. I could always use another excuse to not go to school or work :cheers:

French defeat. A humorist ironised about the way the British have to do the simple things complicated (RAF was the only air force to mount missiles ABOVE the wings :P )
"In france, we  name our monuments after military victories. (Austerlitz railway station). But in GB,  they name their monument after defeats  (Trafalgar square)

:rolleyes:  
King Arthur: Can we come up and have a look?
French Soldier: Of course not. You're English types.
King Arthur: What are you then?
French Soldier: I'm French. Why do you think I have this outrageous accent, you silly king?

Well regardless I would rather take my chance out there on the ocean, that to stay here and die on this poo-hole island spending the rest of my life talking to a gosh darn VOLLEYBALL.

Waterloo station is another one I can think of.

Is there really anything truly "French" about "French Fries"?

Styrene in my blood and an impressive void in my cranium.

Why do JMNs have no since of humor (or a life, for that matter)?

What is this thing? Found it in my spares box and may have a use for it, is it a Recce/Electronics pod or a fuel tank? Sidewinder for size comparison.





And we should really pin this thread it's a great place for those quick questions that don't really need their own thread.

I invite all and any criticism, except about Eric The Dog, it's not his fault he's stupid

That would be a rather poor representation of a TARPS recce pod off the F-14.

Here's a fun one to ask on Hyperscale:

"Is there a difference between a FW190 and an Me109?"

:D

So I got that going for me...which is nice....

Questions for the JMNs:

" What the diff. between a Me-109E4 and E5?"
"Diff between a FW-190A7 and A8"


(Shas Sr would kill me if he knew I was asking, as he's one of the 'know it alls' on luft stuff).
