This may be a bit late for those on the warm side of the planet. Happy St Andrews Day!!!!!! and a happy Là Naomh Anndrais te ye Euan! Gotta love a wee bit o' Gaelic! We've taken quite the shine to bonny Scotland after bingeing Outlander! Carol's quite taken with Jamie Fraser and all things Sam Heughan so she's decided that when we eventually get to Europe, a jaunt around Alba is most definitely on the cards.

May I please have an E-2C Hawkeye and a C-2A Greyhound for the RN in the scheme from Operation CORPORATE? I've done both in the light grey scheme that was used during the later stages of the conflict, but I'll add a couple of overall dark grey for earlier timeframes.

More variations on the CF-105 in this update. Now where was I ... Mmm, well done on all the increased fuel scenarios Johno, certainly takes the pressure off Arrows reportedly guzzler reputation Great range of schemes, yep lots to WIF with here for sure.

More Arrows, this time the penultimate variant of the type with the final design tomorrow. Excellent there John looking good in blue too! I wonder whether any improvement in fuel efficiency with the engine upgrade??

and while we’re throwing Pegs left right and centre, What say you to a run of 4 Peg Jet Belfasts The proposed Conwys were 17.5k V 23.8 Peg so more than capable for HTOL. So Peg should give it excellent VSTOL & hot&high ops ability, nicht wahr? All the usual Republic Oz service schemes n pizza please

I agree that the extra grunt would more than likely make it a sprightly performer.
