That makes a dead elephant a dinosaur. I beg to disagree.

Great pics everyone.
A few more from me.

It might not be a dino yet, but it is definitely an endangered species

Actually, the elephant is that old it could be a dinosaur, methaphoracly speaking. But euhm, I get the point I think. A cow is a bovine, a bovine isn't always a cow.

Grt, Mike.

If German F-4s are also recognized as dinosaurs, then hereby some of my pictures taken at Hopsten, late October 2005.

Some older one's (sorry for the bad quality)

Helaas ook niet meer onder ons als operationeel type. (Iraanse Tomcats tel ik dan even niet omdat geen normale sterveling die nog zal zien vliegen).

Ah, Tomcats again!

Oceana 2004!

Ho ho, not from a carrier, but it ain't that difficult. They are still operational at Isfahan (45 minutes flying from Teheran, 15 euro one way) and from the civil terminal you look straight into the QRA shelters. In February we saw 5 on the first day and 4 on the second. They still do fly!

P.S. and they do look much better!

I didn't say I could take pictures of them.... a few too many nervous Iranian guards around.... and I didn't want to try if they were also trigger happy!
