Stunning stuff especially the Malaysian Hornet and Flanker. :clap: :drool: That nose radar on the Squirrel is clearly far too heavy though! :grin:

Superb set of images, and how cool do the Russian Knights look on the SU-30!? :rock:

Some line-up right enough, the Malaysian stuff alone would be a reason to visit but then you add in the B-1B and the Knights as well, amazing.

They are all excellent images. :up: Love the Russian aircraft which, sadly, we rarely see in Australia these days. :sad:
