  1. The article just goes to show how well the RAF operates , at a level of operational readiness, availability and professionalism far beyond what most nations can do. Just another example of U.K. plc being numero uno . Just wait for the wee miserable daftie doomsday merchants to pipe up with all there pessimistic we don’t have thousands of planes and oh we don’t have this missile or that missile and blah blah blah. Douglas Bader and Bomber Harris know the score RAF -5- Unsportsmanlike baw bag nations airforces 0

      • Thanks Dan I appreciate that .I have nothing but respect for those men and women who serve in our armed forces. I know our forces face challenging situations through lack of money and other such problems but despite it all they function and function well. The mod budget could be £2.50 and the RAF would still operate and make things work cos we always make things work and come out on top.Life is full of people who are negative and who’s sole aim seems to be to put everything and everyone else down. I’ll never apologise for supporting U.K. plc .

    • Not wrong though. Someone will cop the bill and it will be the army who has its funds diverted to pay for it.

  2. Ah Harold, here we go again, things have been quiet since you were using your other Iqbal avatar on other sites. Keep posting please as your utter chuff is amusing, sad, but amusing.

  3. Putinbot. Get back to shovelling the coal into the boilers at the Kremlin. Harold you are the weakest link. Goodbys

      • The saddest thing for me. I do not believe he is a putinbot, or Russian, or anything like that. He is British. And that saddens me. And says a lot about this country.
