    Great pic!

    SU-24 is still flying...

    Our F-111 was put out to pasture years ago... maybe it shouldn't have been...

    Nice image. The Su-24 was lot like a 2/3 size F-111.

    Vark's are expensive to maintain. When you compare it, to the Lawn Dart.

    Affirmative, but during Desert Storm, we and the F-117s did all the damage and the F-16s did not fare so well. Better now that they can use PGMs.

    Varks are not expensive to maintain now because they are all on sticks, in museums or beer cans. Cuts way down on maintenance.

    True, but the Lawn Dart is just a backyard game... :)
