Prepping for the inauguration thing at loftus tomorrow. We got no money but we can afford to fly 2 wide bodies over some political party.

Tu-95 and F-22 Raptor

I had newspaper cuttings from the late 70’s and into the 80’s with these Tu95’s being escorted off Scotland by F4 Phantom’s and Tornado’s. Sadly the scrapbook was lost in a move years ago.

To be very honest I'm not sure.

 

I copied and pasted captions and pics from an FB page, and thought I would learn about aircraft I didn't know about myself.

I thought it would have something to do with the inauguration, thanks.

 

It’s such a pity that we are all led to believe that the very airline is pleading poverty... Aaahh well, maybe that’s the price for a few billion R’s in some bailouts, and protection fees... :sigh:
