Re: Hogs arrive at Yeovil
Posted: Wed Jan 11, 2006 8:22 pmNice shots, but isn't it customary to do an airshow unarmed? Unless of course it is an improvised show over a combat area, then I see the need for the armament.

The Boeing Super Hornet displays carrying a full weapons load.
The only time I've seen a normal display performed when armed though.

As far as I know, the only time they were armed was at Fairford.
Are you flying your F-16 for the 'SimV show' armed as well?

Nope (except for the sidewinders on the wingtip points which can't be removed).

It displayed armed at the Farnborough show a week later as well

Although dont the US also have Hogs at RAF Lakenheath? I remember this article.... "Hogs at the Heath" in AFM...
Not really. Sometimes you see aircraft armed with the ordnance painted in the paint schemes aswell. Im hinting here at the Belgian Tigers. ;)

I've asked Rimshot to bring weaponry as I may need to be shot down to put myself (and all the spectators) out of their misery during my routine..
Love the 10 shots Rim, I've been thinking about how to use it in this month's screen comp...
