Having looked at the photo in question and bearing in mind its the FAA, is this landing incident subject t...

Re: CQWI Arrivals Lossie 12/7

Hi np1991, some interesting shots, apart from the video camera in the 1 sqn T - bird, I noticed that the pilots in the 41 sqn a/c and BC, 29 sqn T-bird are wearing the new helmets with the sensors built in to them, makes for an interesting CQWI me thinks.

Re: MRTT018 First flight after Cobham conversion (pic heavy)

:S What, no centreline HDU (hose drum unit) and/or boom ? C130J, C17 two name but 2 that use both types for air to air refuelling or is this more cost cutting?

Firstly, the safety of the 2 man crew must be addressesd with some urgency and secondly if the type of aircraft lost is correct, it would suggest that some form of air recon is taking place by Turkey or on behalf of NATO. If its confirmed that Syria has shot this aircraft down and was not a mistake,...
