Quote of the day:

Living on the earth is expensive
But it does include
A free trip around the sun
Each year.

The logic of children:

Teacher:
How old is your father?
Johnny:
He's six.
Teacher:
But you are only six.
Johnny:
Yes, but he wasn't a father until I was born.

I had a letter from my doctor telling me I can still have sex at 75
This please me a great deal, I live at 68 so it's a short walk.

But do you remember the Vitor and Valiant?

 

[telectrix]

i rfemember the Victor. wasn't it relegated to become a flying gas tank?

 

[westward10]

The V planes.

 

[Mike Johnson]

And the Valiant was the only one that actually dropped an Atomic and at another time a Hydrogen bomb.

If I can find my old photos, I’ve got one of a real life Vulcan. (The plane, not Spock)
Also one of 13 red arrows.... normally only 10

I thought they had a signature "Diamond 9" formation ? Where did the 10th one fit in ?

I remember being at the British Grand Prix in 1986 at Brands Hatch... and part of the pre-race entertainment was a Vulcan flying display... and this was before flying over crowds was banned ! What an incredible aircraft !! I can still remember the smell of the jet fuel as the aircraft came in low and slow above us, before turning skywards and powering off into an almost vertical climb... Good ol' days...

Often used to see XH558 winging around Northants with plumes of black billowing from it but it is now grounded.

Course I do. Vickers Valiant and the Victor was made by HP....same as them that did the brown sauce. Free bottle with every new flyer.

But only if you had a window seat.

The red arrows use the minuscule Hawk, I wonder how that would get on with the SU, it's enormous.
