There were some GR9's down at Shawbury last week which is not a million miles from here, using callsigns PAGAN and BLAZER so perhaps there's a pattern here.

Wrong aircraft name too, Charlie. It's called a Typhoon. The consortium that makes it is called Eurofighter. :o)

Although until just before they entered service the RAF did still refer to them as eurofighters

They are now roughly one to a pound ;-)

That's how long it took the partners to come up with a name that wasn't rude in any of their 4 languages  :-)

And even the the Germans reportedly objected to flying an aircraft with the same name as a WWII Allied tank-buster ...

Ah well 'Entente cordiale' oh sorry the French were not involved ;-)

Spent many a day in Germany and Spain, listening to the locals bashing out what we should call our aircraft. Surprised Brussels didn't get involved :0)

I have AE2CE1 AE2CA1 AE2CDA AE2CB0 AE2B82 on my box.  No info on them but I would suspect they are F-15's?  Also 43C55D, no info either.  Any ideas?
