F35 spotted in NL

I went to the airshow in Leeuwarden (Friesland) and finally spotted my tax in flight. Louder than the F16 at full throttle but quieter at low speeds. Not sure about the looks though.

Land and population problems seem to have been solved. 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

For income I was going for finding gold but a dancing monkey does sound tempting.

You might have to dredge one up from ocean dirt, Grim but you'd have no problem getting people wanting to escape from the hell-hole they're living in. You could raise funds by tap dancing on street corners. Maybe get yourself a little monkey that can dance along with you?

Maybe I should start my own country. Republic of Grim has a nice ring. Now I only need is land, population, and then income..

Simple...world is sick and there's not a Band-Aid large enough to fix it.
I make fun of it because we've run out of answers.
Please don't try to convince me it's fixable. I won't listen.

>>32561 I think it's one of those 'how far can you fly off the end of a pier' competitions.

>>32563 I do so enjoy seeing billions spent on nuclear weapons instead of health and infrastructure.

Well, do like we do...crank up the presses and just print more money.

Comforting..? Our military forces are seriously underfunded, most of the times they can't practice with ammo cause there is no money. But we must have some extremely expensive aircraft.

I'd rather would've like if the government bought the Saab JAS-39 or the Eurofighter Typhoon. And save the rest of the money on ammo.

Isn't it a comforting thought to see your tax dollars at work.
I can hardly wait for them to spend more of them just to get the damn thing to work.

>>32560 I knew you Brits were hiding something. You're just too damn sneaky for your own good.

12/06/16(Sun)20:06

no, but I saw a British tosser dropping a bomb..

>>32560 what's his story?

Also performed but alas I didn't snapped; the Red Arrows (UK), a Mil Mi-35 "Hind" (CZ), the Turkish Stars (from: guess where), 2 AgustaWestland Wildcat HMA.2 'Black Cats' (UK), Red Devils (Belgium), a C-47 Dakota, a Supermarine Spitfire, a P-51 Mustang, the Frecce Tricolore (Italy), PC-7 (Austria), a Saab JAS-39 Gripen (CZ), and a few aircraft I didn't care about (civilian).

Will post more pix, my dad shot a few 100 or so...snaps that is.

A Mig 29 "Fulcrum" of the Slovak Air Force. This one performed too. Very loud (louder than the F35) and very dirty fumes..at least it didn't need smoke canisters
