Thanks Torsten. Good info. The pic I saw had it in regular German colors. Were they used for long?
I guess less than ten years.
They were modernized to NATO-standards quite expensively, but the Luftwaffe has the policy not to have more than 3 major warplanes.
So once the Typhoon was introduced, it was Typhoon, Tornado, F-4 and Mig-29. As there were propably 200 F-4 and only ~22 Mig-29, the Migs were sold for 1 € apiece to Poland. [:@]

And I believe the F-4 is entering the final days of service with the Luftwaffe.
Yes. I think the last ones will be taken out of service around 2015. I might be wrong though.

Saturday evening tithe.

The carton mountain is slowly receding. There's some problems moving to a slightly smaller place. Having storage problems.

Ok, now time to pack the computer for moving.

I'll be back in a couple of days. Guess I then gotta set up and use my mobile as a router as well, as I have no cable connection until 1st jan.

Laters guys. Be well.

I think youre pretty lucky that your cell companies will let you do that. Here, most either block tethering outright or charge you an arm and a leg to use it.

Really? That's always been open here. I'm paying ~20 (Euro)/month for a 3G account with a max UL/DL of 10Gb/month. As long as I don't pass that limit, they don't care. Neither should they IMHO.

GOOD LUCK?? Are we not suppose to run and hide whenever Vikings are on the move.

Well, he's only moving some 15km. I think Vikings just strap the furniture to their reindeer and hitch their moose(s?) to their loads to move them short distances like that.

Oh, good. So, I can tell the nuns down the street that they are safe.
NUNS!?!? WHERE? [;)]

There was idea that we get rid out of our old MiG-21's and get Luftwaffe F-4's (very cheaply) in the interim period until we buy proper new aircraft (even now there is proposal by Sweden for Grippens)...

Ah, groin.

Once again Army has snatched defeat out of the jaws of victory on multiple occasions; just like they have for every stinking quarter for the last ten years. I'm thinking of talking to Artillery Branch and see if we can't hook up with the Marines, or somebody. Woof !!

3 hours until Navy starts whipping up on Army again. [8D]
Yes, yes, 10 v 10 at the half. And the Black Knights kick a clutch FG to tie it up.

Was a fantastic game! [&o]

Don't get excited. They are safely out of your reach. I'm told you don't have a long boat. [:'(]

Yep and yep. WU and I are sharing a plan with another couple so we end up paying about $55/phone. Everyone except the other guy who grandfathered his unlimited data plan has a 2gb max. Luckily we all have wifi everywhere. And that doesnt even figure in what it would cost for them to unlock tethering.
