| The Vulcan was the only plane to drop a bomb on the Argentinian runway during the Falklands War. It was an incredible mission. As far as old bombers are concerned I prefer the F111. For propellers give me a A26.

| Speaking of Vulcans, I just watched Thunderball for the umpteenth time to start off the holiday movie season (and look, I have my own definition of holiday movies, don't @ me). Lots of good shots of them there.

Mistake not my current state of joshing gentle peevishness for the awesome and terrible majesty of the towering seas of ire that are themselves the milquetoast shallows fringing my vast oceans of wrath.

Where is the not sure if serious meme? Those red discs are covers for the engine exhausts to keep foreign objects out. Often used at air shows where spectators will be around your aircraft or longer term storage. If you were kidding my bad. |
