Funny how som...like your B52 posting the other day.<br />Funny how some things are so good there's no point in "upgrading" to the latest & greatest. I recall the arrival of the F-111s in AU service. We had 'borrowed' F4s as a stop-gap between when the F-111s should have arrived, and when they actually did. There was a lot of comment around that we should have just bought the F4s. would have got many more aeroplanes and reliability for a lot less money.AJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10900694917351847908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-63573858903212719002012-04-20T04:05:28.756-05:002012-04-20T04:05:28.756-05:00Any day with Phantoms in it is a good day.
