Re the Su27 with the sign plastered on the intake:
It reminded me of a story about the Canadian built CF 86 Sabre jets deployed in Europe in the '60s. On one exercise, a Canadian pilot was "strafing" a Belgian command post at low level. When he got back to base, he had part of the radio truck's antenna stuck in his wing root.

A little too close.



Sorry I can't find a link to the story, but it can be found (with gun camera images) in a book called The Canadair Sabres.

^Nice concept, but still not enough space unless using very thick shorty sticks.

And how does one break the rack?

Is there a way a filter can but put on this thread that if any picture that has already been posted can't be added again?

Just sayin'......for example, the 2nd pic of the lady with the bomb on her belly/having the baby is a different source file from the 1st one posted a week or two ago. So you can't rely on file name to filter.

Even if there were some kind of operation where a new picture was crashed against every single existing picture in the thread, it would take time to run and you could probably have a sandwich and a beer before the clearing routine was completed and your pic was uploaded. That would be more annoying then seeing a duplicate every so many pages.

From my perspective, this thread is just an addictive brain twinkie hang out that's a fun time kill. A duplicate does not bug me that much but everybody's different.

Here's a semi-random picture:
