Thanks, JK ..its Warthunder, not really a sim I guess...or maybe it is. I just use it for screenshots, but it costs a bit to keep up with the new aircraft etc.

They did do a demo in 1971, but obviously that didn’t eventuate.

Thanks for that Lindstrim. I would have thought it would have been ideal for them.

Excellent shots, as always, Marty. Good to see you're still keeping a standard for the rest of us to aim at!

I believe RG Smith did some ' What If ' paintings of A-4s...I maybe wrong.
But that Harrier looks great.

It's Harrier month!
Looking through all the nice Harrier pics, I remembered this event.
Only available to Harriers, really.

Charl, I've watched that clip over and over. Great flying skills(if not normal procedure...) by that very humble USMC pilot..... but also to the people who placed the "stool" ...they knew what he knew, and vice versa....trust....this particular situation was never really going to go wrong.... I repeat ...this particular situation.
This is a great example of teamwork/ superb training, for all involved.... well-done USMC :rockon:

It was a "what if" repaint by a guy over at War Thunder.

Yes, of course you can do it. There is nothing against it. In any case, the Swiss did not even consider buying it, at least to my knowledge. At the new MSFS I also have my swearing to fly "stylishly" in Russia. I am currently working on the evaluation of an addon of Yekaterinburg Airport...
