Not I! I'm crazy, but NOT that touched in the head. Oh and I don't like subs, having been in one once, and likening it to being in a metal coffin. My hat goes off to all submariners, I'd go even more nuts than I am already if I had to be locked up in one!!!
Nice shots by the way Andrew.

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

anyone read the book written by Tom Clancy and also seen the film. it's annoying that they didn't show many scenes in the film (F-14 vs. Yak 38)...

A Nuclear sub has sailed round the world (submerged) in 50 days.

A french Trimaram aims to beat this record. (just another small fact to show that sail power is still faster than motors!

Hi Fozzer!

Glad you liked my shots!

I'm not sure which water addon i'm using, it's been so long i forget Wink

The submarine is kinda cool. It can even somewhat submerge under the water too, but unless Bill gates takes my virtual pilot's license away, I think i'll stick with my planes....lol Grin

lol, yea it would of been great to have to dogfight in the Hunt for Red October the movie. That type of sub, (USS Dallas) is a 688 LA Class, the newer ones are 688(I) LA Class, which have the planes on the bow instead of the sail. I've had tours on MSP, and Jacksonville.
