  1. The original EGG plane!!! Kidding. Great job, although I sincerely resent the subject.
  2. Paychecks were already sent to the lucky winners. Now more are about to be printed on new and useless products, replacing old useless products. Usually is how that works
  3. Rafale is selling quite well last 2-3 years actually. Again, for political reasons there are many bumps along the way for the French. Typhoon is a great jet, however more high-altitude oriented. F-15EX is expensive and old design, Gripen is rather a poor man's coat. Single engine as well. For me, Canada was either for Super Hornet or for Rafale. I would bet on the Rafale. Beautiful jet with even better capabilities.
  4. True. However the people in power managed to kick the can down the road long enough. Same with Germany. You cannot fight Corporations easily. Nobody cares if pilots should rely on one or two engines. Money is all that matter. I just read that 33 F-22 will be sent to AZ Boneyard in fiscal 2023. To 'use the money to improve the rest of the F-22 and F-35 and for new advanced research" Are you kidding me? Of course twin jet. Anytime a TWIN. ANY time. F35C... C as in crap. What comes next? Single-Engine Atlantic Crossing maybe. I long for the times of the Tri-jets, the Tomcats and others... AMEN!
  5. So did anybody see it already? I guess this will be the new most selling kit in the upcoming months, starting May 27th. It is interesting how things will unfold. A naval aviator predicted F-35 role /actually I've heard that too back in 2018/. F-14, F/A-18 and now the Su-57. The trailer shows the 57 seen from inside of the Tomcat too. Which means it will be further into the movie story probably.
  6. Yeah, something like that, although not clear what is exactly. Private Air Force with Aggressor role. There are two or three in the US. I could only wish to have such a venture.
  7. It kinda beats the purpose of flying the mighty Dolphin using the OLD WAYS
  8. Not my bag of candy, but yeah, why not!? I like it.
  9. Oh yes. That too. Completely forgot about it.
  10. KH had 48th Su-25 ready for 2022. Trumpeter buys KH = Trumpeter releases the Frogfoot. Zvezda - even though shape-wise will be decent - surface-wise will be C- at best. As always.
  11. Decent Frogfoots in 48th scale eventually. Finally. Not that I enjoy the looks of that plane, but it is a must in quarter scale, same as the A-10.
  12. They won't be able to as far as my information goes. Not with the major ones. That what was announced earlier this months is a dust. Anyhow, how will they trace you when your wallet has no name, no email, nothing?
  13. 4.4 mil fled the country. They are proposing fund for the Mriya? Reaaaaaly?
  14. Last couple years they did, but it was 200 sales or 20 000USD. Now anything over 600 get reported. It will most likely get worse. IMHO crypto will be the only way out of this.
  15. Today there was a Greyhound and a Super Hornet that I saw, then on my way home I saw Hawkeye circling east of the base. Spoke with some spotters there, they saw a P-3 and a Kfir earlier.
  16. Worldwide there is that tendency. I use three services in three different countries. USPS being one of them, so far being the most professional. Not that others are bad either. Posts are working fine considering how many people are active nowadays. I have to add that I like them a lot. However, one of those /postal service providers/ increased prices 3 times in 2021. And probably USPS doing so as well wasn't unexpected.
  17. +1 on that. Not a banana. A blob. Canopy of the blob too. Blob helmet for the blob drivers.
  18. There were P-3 and E-2, no Harriers though. Maybe just bad timing. Don't know.
