With my statement about A-10s, I was merely trying to tease my old friend Roel (Warthog64). :twisted:

It is all a matter about taste, so let's stop discussing and just enjoy the pictures (with or without A-10s) :wink:

Concorde :please!: :~?~:
@ NustyR

The Concorde was a Anglo French collaboration. Thank God for the British because if the French had made it by themselves they would have come up with something extremely ugly like they always do.

Agree. It's just as ugly as the Beluga, Dreamliner and Dreamlifter.

Thanks Ernesto, this is the best proof of my point. French -> equals -> ugly . Even the registration says so. :wink:
