No need. At the moment I am only doing Wednesdays, but that could change depending on the weather and ops.

Are they selling bacon cobs at the WAVE? Not kosher.

Very nice shots.
Its pretty obvious where the large IDF/AF insignia used to be...suitably "lo profile" marks now. I thought military aircraft had to display a national id but obviously Israel believe they don't have to...

What he doesn't tell you is we didn't know how to switch the bl**dy thing off LOl!
I suggested just take the batteries out.
Glad that the rightful owner was found.
