I remember when we had some of those staying with us at RAF Wyton. Fun Cool

But they got badly smoked by the Canberra boys Grin

Spot on perfect Mic.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

At first when I saw this I was like "Oh great. It's just one of Marks Weird(But funny) jokes Roll Eyes

. And I Did not feel like
coming up with a witty response Grin

. But WOW that is amazing Cool

I feel ashamed for Not looking at this. Embarrassed

And Mark what do you mean the Canberra guys smoked them. If the Hog pilots meant business They would have Buttered the rear of the EE Canberra with an aim 9. And if that didn't get the message they would have used a quick round of 30mm cannon that would tear the British planes apart

Most people think that flying a plane is dangerous, except pilots because they know how easy it is.
Arguing with a pilot is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a while you begin to think the pig likes it.

The Warthog drivers kept doing low-level showing off and the American pilots kept on giving the Canberra pilots a hard time about how naff their planes were.
So one afternoon the Canberra pilots took revenge by doing and exact copy of the American routine with the Canberras!
That took some big ones and the Warthog drivers stopped gobbing off down the Naafi Grin
