Wings of Gold

Welshflyer · Posted: Fri May 09, 2008 1:08 am Post subject: Wings of Gold

I don't know but it's been said that Air Force wings are made of lead and i don't know but i've been told that Navy wings are made of Gold Very Happy

. I've been and am still in the process of rebuilding my Carrier fleet. So rather than be shy and keep it to myself i thought i'd share Very Happy

, so this thread might go on for a while Rolling Eyes

. We start off in a hardened shelter at RAF/USAF Lakenheath for a short 200 mile flight

We start up and taxi

It's a long taxi here Rolling Eyes

Finally we reach the runway,final check and look around and advance the throttles

It's a beautiful day to fly Very Happy

Passing the new Ark Royal Carrier group......

......because we're headed for the old one Razz

Looking good so far

And put it down right on the money Shocked

for a change

Fold the wings and park up

Thanks for taking the time to view these there will be another along soon Very Happy

Thanks gents, warlord40 i think you mean Air Brake by AB, as full power is applied before landing in case the wire is missed and we have to bolter i did'nt apply it! The three wire is all the braking you need Smile
