crazyeddie Posted March 13 Posted March 13 I was an FAC in the 1970's and this was our preferred aircraft to work with. I had the odd ride in most things - F4, Bucc etc but never got a ride in one of these, but god how I tried !! I was 6ft 2in then so not sure I could fit in that small pit, an aircraft well suited to small people !!! Really nice workmanship boys (and gals if you have any), well done. 3
Tonker Posted March 13 Posted March 13 A bit OT, but might be of interest here - not least as a potential promo route for when @Cam1McH gets to that stage... 2 Nah, I've only just met 'er...:pilotfly:
joey45 Posted March 13 Posted March 13 The Cockpit is looking awesome. 1 The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

MiGCap1 Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Just found this thread - great! A real working Jag is exactly what we need for the upcoming Cold War Germany map! I love the Jag, flew it twice on photo missions in 1986 and 1989. First jet I encountered with a HUD in the backseat. 1986, dashing along the border to East Germany: And 1989 during Tactical Fighter Meet 89: @crazyeddie You are 1,88m tall in my measuring system and I am 1,84m - and I fitted well in. 14 1 http://www.instagram.com/spetersen13/?fbclid=IwAR07OCbRZX6qISe0fS8iUQfzts_iazbm7UEsxiKNnqviADGTaRWJJN7iAws http://www.facebook.com/spetersen13/

FupDuck Posted May 29 Posted May 29 Great video! The Jaguar is my favourite Cold War era plane. There's just something about that shape that says deadly and sexy at the same time. Plus that landing gear! I think if I had a Jaguar, I would spend a lot of time just driving it around. 2 "...I just wanna fly; put your arms around me baby, put your arms around me baby" - Sugar Ray RTX 3090, Ryzen 7 5800X3D, MSI MPG B550 Gaming mobo, 64 GB DDR4 RAM, 970 EVO Plus NVMe M.2 SSD 2TB game drive, VKB STECS Standard throttle, Winwing Ursa Minor Fighter stick, Oculus Quest Pro via ersatz link cable, Standalone DCS.
