i hope it gets shot down (pilot ejects of course), seriously, prove to everyone that its a $180m waste of fuel and electrical wiring (that stuff is useful people)

Where do you base your opinion?

[Gripen]

My opinion?

its not an opinion, its a hope

Oh, seriously Recce, that sounds so much like a suck-up. Well, i suppose the F-15 would take such a high position. Gripen, that's just sick.

Lol, the RSAF re-engined ones cracked up (literally) after the first flight. There was this event where the Hunter landed with a coconut tree stuck on one wing too. Quite hilarious, actually. And the time the Hunter crash-landed in um, somewhere, i think. They couldn't cut off the wings so they cut down the trees!

You were in the USS Midaway too?? My dad went there like 2 months ago!! I am planning to make a report on that, with pics and such

If I remember to, I'll grab some of the better photos I made on my trip. I wasn't just at the USS Midway. I visited a couple of other air museums in the area. Palmdale and March. SOme nice U2 and SR71s there, amongst a lot of other airframes!

Perhaps if you plan to make a report, we can set up a new thread on the USS Midway aircraft displays together?

Sure!! I will let you know
