Happy Hog-many
Apologies to any Scottish FC'ers, but I couldn't resist the pun. I thought I'd post a few shots of the BRRRRT machine taken durng a recent trip stateside. It's hard to realise that these quirky looking jets were once a common sight in the UK. I wish everyone all the best for 2020, and hope you like ...

Re: Fuglies at Linton 16/9/19
Fully agree with the "Fugly" reference - I say the old JSF acronym actually meant "Jeez, Seriously Fugly".
With regards the "Toilet Seat", don't they normally come with a bg hole in the middle? Shouldn't the auxiliary engine inlet cover be a 'bog lid'?

Re: Will be passing Tuesday 11 September
Hi GVLCN I live locally and have to report not much happens these days (I've not been down for a while). There is only 1 production Typhoon left to be delivered - ZK437/BS153. The last time this was reported was on 13 Aug by "Chief Reporter" TombsRIP (see August Movements thread). I would imagine th...

Isn't Gauntlet a DTEO call-sign - seem to remember the old A&AEE using such - or has my old brain gone totally?
