    We wouldnt want it anyway its too outdated and spares are hard to come by and well you dont get a 100% guarantee off the old Soviet Bloc nations now do you?

    Maybe not Migs , but I am sure I read somewhere a fair few years ago that the IAC were looking at the Danish Drakens when they were replacing them with F16s ( must have been mid / late 80's )

    I saw this advert too , costs something like 30k... they talk about going to 60k ft etc etc .... shame Concorde isn't still flying , you do the same and drink champange for a lot less ! :-)

    Would love a go in a fast jet however, sort of thing you do if money is no object.

    Anyone else fancy going into space with Richard Branson then ? Always admired Rutan and his aeroplanes, he doesn't get the credit he deserves.
