Col. Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 With the 80's era NATO Vs Warsaw Pact in Europe having just started today we got chatting about some of the subjects that just miss the cut-off date. You can imagine it, lots of silver heavy metal in the skies, MBT's rumbling about, surface ships including the last of Britain's Fleet Air Arm going about. Sound fun? Okay the fashion and music could be dodgy but so were those things in the 80's 1, Col. 2, Arniec 3, Pin 4, modelling minion 5, nimrod54 6, HansReggelsen 7, PhantomBigStu 8, DAG058 9, Ghostbase 10, jrlx 11, whitestar12chris 12, smuts 13, specky 14, Jabba 15, Cookenbacher 16, AndyC 17, CliffB 18, Giorgio N 19, Dave_R 20, Wez 21, Shermaniac 22, fatfingers 23, 06/24 24, Radleigh 25, franky boy 26, mirageiv 27, IanHx 28, helios16v 29, Rob G 30, Lex77 31, theplasticsurgeon 32, trickyrich 33, charlie_c67 34, Kingtiger 35, kpc7676 36, Blitz23 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HansReggelsen Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 (edited) Why not! - I'm old enough to remember the '70'es - Sundays without cars on the streets because of oil shortage, disco, Grease, the rise of the young Arnold Schwarzenegger and - what is more interesting in this context - The Armsdeal of the Century - which plane would grace the skies over Europe - The YF-16? - The YF-17? The Viggen? or the Mirage F.1? Well - we know now, but back then - it was so exiting. I even built a F-16 in green camoflage - Well the RDAF F-100 was green, as was the Draken, the F-104 and Hunter....! So - Yes - I'm in as well!

Giorgio N Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 No need to think about it from my side, it's a resounding yes ! Speaking of aircrafts alone, these 10 years saw the last months of service of some old classics like the Sabre and the F-86 and the arrival of aircrafts still in service today like the F-15. There's potential for a large number of subjects with some interesting markings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_R Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Yes and hell YES!!!!! - with caps lock and 5 exclamation marks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I feel a Toul-Rosières based F-100 would fit into this one nicely... ...I'm in. Wez 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
