MacStingy Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Good morning all. Just stumbled across this, http://www.vintagewings.ca/en-ca/home. good article about a Spit that I had never heard of. Looks like I will have to go shopping for another Spitfire and a bunch of white paint. This is the kind of thing that motivates me.

AVGBob Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 FYI, there's a period at the end of the link that messes it up. Ok, that being said, Icefire! That's got to be one of the coolest(no pun intended) Spit's I have seen. Nice find! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jennings Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Those are the same jokers who did the RCAF MiG-21 article a few years ago... on the same date. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RiderFan Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Love the 'Ookpik' squadron crest. That's gotta be one of the best ever. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cafe Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) Lol at the name of squadron leader Gelécul. It means "frozen a$$" in french. Culgelé is probably more idiomatic though. Edited April 2, 2015 by cafe Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scooby Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Those are the same jokers who did the RCAF MiG-21 article a few years ago... on the same date. Hey also did the tail art on current Canadian military aircraft, which was of famous Canadian actors like William Shatner and Doug and Bob McKenzie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Aaronw Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 I know this is an April Fools, but I'm going to tuck it away with some of the neat but disproven schemes. It would make a striking model of a Spitfire. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
