Any one fancy a new no fly zone det to Aki?

BBC saying if the UN vote yes to the no fly zone over Lybia (in the next hr or so) then RAF Jets could be in action over the contry tomorrow!!!!!!

I know were good but unless theres a hidden sqn or two out there then I very much doubt it!!!!!

Lossiemouth have Typhoons according to BBC.. Shows they have no idea!

 

[MAINJAFAD]

Heard on the news this AM that Dave is sending Typhoons & Tonka's out to the med & that one of Mad Gadaffi's jets was shot down by insurgents earlier..He's also said that this will be different than the gulf war..how?..When the sh1t kicks off,a war's a war & the ROE's the same no matter..

Rock on Dave...you know you make sense to someone..

Jet was a Mig 23, and it was flown by a very dead pilot, as there are photos of him banging out way too late.

and it was flown by a very dead pilot

Perhaps that why he got shot down, might have been alright if it was flown by a live pilot....DT_Xtremez_14:

Oh he was very alive until he and the Ejection seat hit the deck at the same time with his parachute still streaming.

By the way, Sky News report that the French AF have just started dropping weapons on targets in eastern Libya.

11 Tornados have just arrived in Cyprus according to Sky.

That's a lie, we've never had that many serv before!

 

[80grade]

Ah, that's a load of bollox now apparently. Twitterings.

Knowing the accuracy of sky, they've probably mistaken them for those red things that go out there at this time of year.

Not seen or heard any of those land...the Sparrows have turned up though

The French must be confident of a win. I hope it's not an omen to the rest of us, lets be honest, the Froggies are not really known for the military victories. DT_Xtremez_30:

Gotta be honest, the French seem really up form this. WTF got up their nose??

Ah, that makes sense then.

Good grief, the world has really gone mad. Never in a bazillion years thought I'd read the phrase...

A French plane has fired the first shots

Unless the words "at an unarmed drone in an all-France airborne exercise" were to follow them.

 

[woollymouse]

It's interesting to note that all the reports are coming from Lossie and not a word from the Fens.

It might depend on the right airframes by coincidence being at Lossie.

Can't be watching SKY or the BBC then!

 

[OK..Igiveup]

second rate?

second rate?

Is it not a bit embarrassing that we seemed to be the driving force, yet we are still getting ready and the French are in the air and dropping bombs. I know they are a bit nearer, but we seem to have so many more departments. They are also getting their carrier ready according to the news.........
...how long will it take us to get ours ready?


now they say it was a rebel plane that got shot down by rebels.....

who knows who is on whose side?

Who told the French where to drop?

But to answer your question, I've just had a phone call telling me to pack to be on the next available trooper. 0 to 24hr NTM in the space of one phone call. Damn, I love this job sometimes!

TBJ - well at least everyone's allowances will be looked after now. DT_Xtremez_14:DT_Xtremez_30:
