Anyone going to tell me what film the A6 Intruder was the star along side Danny Glover or am I going to have to start beating my fists against the table in frustration?

If we are going for old war dogs then how have you all missed the Canberra?
A mate of mine who worked on PR9's told me a story about how the yanks were boasting about who's plane could fly highest. They ended up having a little competition. The yanks sent us a photo of a PR9 taken from above by a U-2. We sent them back a photo of their U-2 taking a picture of that other Canberra, from above!
Also, i don't get why all the conspiracy over testing aircraft. how else do you think they develop them? and obviously want to keep them quiet and out of sight hence night flying.
BAe have a testing range in Australia that is the size of Wales. most of our new stuff is now tested out there. not so much to keep it out of sight of the public but more so to keep them safe if one of these development aircraft crashes over a populated area.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Duxford 2008 Canberra did a pretty much full throttle take off on the grass.
Fucking A-mazing. My ears still hurt.

The Antonov 225 always makes me chuckle just for the sheer size of the thing.
Though the F14 Tomcat is very cool
