mon-goose Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 we have to reinact a scene from a movie for an end of year celebration and we went through loads of movies last night trying to find one. In the end we decided on this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nh5Lh-tTSZQ
MTBeer Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 one day when I'm big I'm going to fly one of those Bateleur1 and Lurch 2
Patchelicious Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) one day when I'm big I'm going to fly one of thoseSad to say, but I think they have just grounded all the F14s. Am sure that means more private owners and more flips for us though. Edited November 9, 2017 by Patchelicious Bateleur1 1

Bateleur1 Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 Sad to say, but I think they have just grounded all the F14s. Am sure that means more private owners and more flips for us though. F14, F15 and F16 are my favourate aircraft. Used to play Microprose F16 SImulator. Was a very sad day when Hasbro bought them out and closed them down. Hairy, stefmeister and Patchelicious 3
Lurch Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 Sad to say, but I think they have just grounded all the F14s. Am sure that means more private owners and more flips for us though.I won't nitpick that it's an F-15 in that picture... (Still a valid comment about the F-14's though) I'd kill for a flight in any of them, but given a choice, the F/A-18F would be it. Robbie Stewart and Beattbox 2

At a glance, I though it saw swept back wings...well whoops. F15 still cool, but not Iceman cool Lurch 1
Lurch Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 SAAF at ysterplaat are flying their old planes a lot currentlyProbably because the SAAF only have old aircraft... Ok, not strictly true, but it's even sadder with the new stuff (like Gripens) being mothballed because we don't have enough type rated pilots Bateleur1 1
Lurch Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 A F15E Strike Eagle to be more exact My gut said it was the E but wasn't 100% sure so decided not to add the E and get flamed by somebody spotting something I missed... Patchelicious 1

I know twin brothers who build professional simulators, and they have a Mirage F1CZ simulator in their garage, certified by Dassault.If you know who Arthur Piercy is, the sim is built in the nose of the F1CZ he had his crash in. EDIT: http://www.dooley.co.za/arthur_piercy.htm (Story with the simulator) Talking simulators, I helped out on one of their projects for an Air Traffic Control simulator that's sitting at 43 Air School in Port Alfred. My mouse pad sitting on my desk from the project. Edited November 9, 2017 by Lurch the stalker Fruity, Bateleur1 and Long Wheel Base 3
