Whilst refining 2002 manoeuvres with the Red Arrows this week in preparation for forthcoming airshows in the States, I was lucky enough to grab this picture of an unidentified aircraft only a few hundred feet above our formation. Can anyone tell me what it is, please?http://www.swiremariners.com/tom.jpgMark "Dark Moment" Beaumonthttp://www.swiremariners.com/cxkaitak.htmlhttp://www.swiremariners.com/cxkaitakv3.jpg

Full marks, Mike, for sharing my warped sense of humour. Ah well, Tom, you'd better lock this thread ... sorry, I mean, lock the car when you get there.Mark "Dark Moment" Beaumonthttp://www.swiremariners.com/cxkaitak.htmlhttp://www.swiremariners.com/cxkaitakv3.jpg

A rudder but no wings? I wouldn't even fly that silly thing!!! :-lol

It gets worse, hahaha.

Yo, now you're talking, Lizardo. Shigeru Tanaka is THE MAN. Like me (but far cleverer) he must have been dropped on his head when he was a baby.Mark "Dark Moment" Beaumonthttp://www.swiremariners.com/cxkaitak.htmlhttp://www.swiremariners.com/cxkaitakv3.jpg

I love his stuff, haha. On the dog, head & tail move too :-)

I'd forgotten about Taro in FS2000. I've had a daughter since. I dropped him into FSEdit, this morning, added some effects and tried him out from Dog Leg, Nebraska. Where else? He still flies like a dog!http://www.swiremariners.com/taro.jpgIf any of you are unlucky enough to have missed Shigeru Tanaka's creations, go to:http://www.flightsimnetwork.com/shigeru/His site will change your outlook on life!Mark "Dark Moment" Beaumonthttp://www.swiremariners.com/cxkaitak.htmlhttp://www.swiremariners.com/cxkaitakv3.jpg

It's pizza delivery for the shuttle astronauts. I thought everyone knew about that.
