Why do something like that when you can slap one of these on a tail and call it a day?

Beautiful, here's hoping! Now, without doing any research, what are the silhouettes? I'd say Sea Fury? Mossie, Mirage F1/Jag? Vampire, Vautour.

Not really off-topic, 'cos I'm adding one of each to my wish-list!! :grin:
And as the smart ship grew,
In stature, grace and hue,
In shadowy silent distance grew the iceberg too....

Ah yes, the well-known French Air Force Sea Furies!

Try P-47 Thunderbolt

And it is indeed a Mirage F1 (not Jaguar)

With today's update it looks like the US Navy, USAF and Qatar wont send any more aircraft over (thats how I understand it) so only Japan and India are left flashing orange.
I would take a E-767 and C-17

We can get updates without an air arm even flashing Orange.

Green doesn't mean nothing else. Look at Ireland, it has been Green since May and the Silver Swallows announcement and today they send more. Royal Navy and RAF have also been Green for a while and we've seen updates.

The 4 ship Gazelle display team would've been good to see in the flying (due to these performing at previous R/IAT's).

Spotted 2 DA40's of the Austrian AF on, I guess, a navigation trip, flying from Buckeburg (Germany) back to Austria. That would be a nice addition to the trainers theme at RIAT and a nice educational navigation trip for the Austrians. But unfortunately to late. Maybe next year :wink:
