Sorry fellas, I beat you all to it. Now all I've got to do is get the council to straighten out a few miles of road out the front here so's I can get it home, then I'll either have to put some huge parliament hinges on the wings so I can get it in the garage or I'm gonna have to build a bigger garage. Anybody know if you can tow a tool trailer behind one of these?

Hope you have trained the faithful hound not to chase cars because your new mode of transport might produce hot dog.

Anyone know if those safeway fuel vouchers work for these?:D

[coastie]

Isn't that one of the p[lanes that the RAAf bought which can't fly out of Australia without refeulling??
Along with single screw destroyers,etc,etc,

[Eastie]

But it doesn’t have any wheels and looks to be a bit tail heavy
Anyhow, FA18’s are so passé, a MIG on the other hand -

No need to install hinges in the wings. Folding wings are a standard fit item for dragging around on carrier decks. There is a hook under the centre rear suitable for attaching a tool trolley.

Unfortunately - 32,000lb of thrust from the rear end could remove the stubbie labels from the tool box.

Don't bother the council with road lengthening. Install an arresting cable instead. Saw the US marines install one in a couple of days and they were stopping these babies from flight speed to zip in what looked like 150 ft.

Fuel is just a souped up version of kerosene. Rob the slops from the heater and the hurricane lamps.

I managed to score a couple of jollies in this birds predecessor (Mirage) and that was an awsome experience. There may be better than the hornet around, but in the hands of an experienced knuck(lehead) I'll defy anybody to keep their lunch.
