Cosford 2007 Part 2: Jaguars

[jonesy97]

Death to spys.

[mclarenrock]

and you would be suprised mate, a small area like that can create an alarming amount of weight

[mclarenrock]

served? cadet lambert u sum up space cadets ....pricks...oooo i get to sit in a jag that last flew in the 80s. am at cosford atm on my amm course, sit in the work on them every day and they are all old buses that are about as likely to fly again as you are to suceed in life.

we also have the war reserve jags on the main side. also arent fun.

getting a hard on from sitting in a jet is true spacey style mate well done

[GerbilEssences]

I'm surprised those things fly with the microscopic wing area. Must be a long takeoff run?

[mrdislexic]

oh dear a testosterone competition i c

[SmiertSpionem]

Dyslexics of the world untie!

[wildhorseshadwell]

what the fcuk r u on about but seriously he should have used bollocks if he wasnt sure!!!

[CDTLambert]

hahaha joedaviesuck1

i served in that airshow and i was alowed to sit in the aircraft aswell so unlucky

i even got to fly the models

[faireyswordfishmk1]

its a shame to see it leave coningsby. the only place the jag is stationed at now is lincolshire very sad to see it leave soon :(

[joedaviesuk1]

cosford is a jaguar graveyard!

[joedaviesuk1]

haha i sat in 1 of them on raf camp nobody was aloud 2 touch them hahahahaha suck on that

[04nunhucks]

Did anyone watch it land?I was with the CCF cadets from many contingents. It was awesome!

[jakobgrimminger]

That second Jag, "07" of 226 OCU brings back memories. I used to work on her back in the 80's at Lossiemouth. I've always had a soft spot for the Jag. Reasonably easy to work on, although it had a few jobs on it that could be an absolute bitch to do!

[SmiertSpionem]

Are you an RAF technician/mechanic or something?

[jakobgrimminger]

Yes, Airframes technician. I'm not in the RAF now though

[KurtGnu]

Hoping to go to the Norwich Aviation Museum sometime this summer.. They have one there.. Saw them practising landing / take offs at Coltishall a couple of years ago.. outside the airfield.. Not a bad aircraft at all.. Now, maybe there's hope that MY latest video will appear as well, it's only been brewing since before noon today.. :P Great video.. :) And no, I haven't (yet) got a kit.. but would like to build one from Coltishall one day.. :)

[KurtGnu]

Better clarify.. I was outisde the airfield, they landed inside on the runway.. :)

[SmiertSpionem]

Yeah only Swedes land jets outside the airfield, on the road etc. Odd country.

[KurtGnu]

I'd say it's a very clever concept.. :D

[SmiertSpionem]

I've no idea of its quality or buildability, but theres many an Airfix Jag about model shops/hobbycrafts at the moment(With cool 'The Saint' stickman insignia!). I may well pick one up!

Though I admit I've never seen one fly. :*(

[KurtGnu]

You still have seen far more aircraft in the air than I ever have.. :D My friend in Ipswich is doing the Jaguar at the moment.. it's got the Saint Stickman, but I'm not sure if it's the Airfix kit or not.. when I saw it it was full of filler.. he wasn't overly impressed by the fit.. but he loves these obscure weird kits that hardly ever go together well.. for some reason..:)

[SmiertSpionem]

Sounds like the airfix to me. I'm not in a rush to buy it though.

[KurtGnu]

I'm not sure.. it may have been the Airfix decals.. or after market.. but not neccesarily the Airfix kit.. :)

[SmiertSpionem]

Ah, cunning use of airfix decals on a different plane. As I plane to do to my Italeri IX.

[KurtGnu]

You're getting to grasp with the finer details of modelling, my friend..

[stevem1976]

Hasegawa have the best Jag models 1:72 check em out.i have the you have the option to make the single seater if you buy the two seat model.

[SmiertSpionem]

Groovy, problem is I won't be making any jets for a while, not until I have finished my spitfire project. It involves all the main marks.

Thanks for the tip.
