I heard that today and I was just going to ask if anyone heard the turboprop.
Sounded great, and gladly it seems I'm going to have to get used to it.
Although nothing can beat the Fouga's (in my memory) flying ultra low level. One time one buzzed right over me and my mates head, with nose light on and a pretty smokey engine. Very very impressive to us... and since then everytime I see and Air Corps plane, I curse the fact I have to wear contact lenses, meaning I can never be one of those blokes behind the stick
Lads morale may not be great and ye may not have much in the way of cutting edge equipment, but what I wouldnt give to be able to fly in the air corps... :flagwave:
