F15E One of my favourite aircraft!

F15E       why aren't we flying these ships  down under?  F35???

I remember seeing F15's landing at Williamtown AFB back in the 1980's.  At the time the RAAF were still flying the Mirage 111C.   F18 Supers are a good stop gap, but if we can't get the F22, F15SE well, at least they have two by engines!

What would Les do with: Kim Jong Un?

What to to do with Kim Jong Un?


Well, Les, being a Vietnam Vet, would probably call in an airstrike!  F4 Phantom or F100 Super Saber would do the job!    No eating spiders here, hey Bear!   Bomb the ass off this peanut!

What would Les do?

What would Les Hiddens (Bushtucker Man) do in a particular  situation.
Well.  I guess the big Bear wouldn't make it in the world according to Les.


And you know what????

If it's good enough for Les.......it's good enough for me!

Sorry Bear!

Ahh Darwin






As I sit here in the same old, same old Newcastle NSW, my mind drifts to the Northern Territory of Australia.  NOT a state, but a territory!  What does this mean?   
Well to my mind it means that this part of the largest island on earth is not important enough to the "pen-pushing, desk-sucking, blotter-jotters" in Canberra. ( General Sir Anthony Cecil Hogmanay Melchett VC DSO KCB)

This part of the largest island on the planet is extremely important to the Commonwealth of Australia.
Why it is continually dismissed by the rest of Australia is beyond me. Maybe it is that most Australians have never been to Darwin or any other parts of this captivating place. I guess it's cheaper, and has more bogan 'street cred', to say your went to Bali or Phuket.

Anyway, here are some of my favourite pics from the NT.
