Guest Darkness Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 Air Force Colombian? (??????) Que yo sepa allá hablan castellano y se llaman Fuerzas Aéreas Colombianas...o si quieres ponerlo en ingles: Colombian Air Force. No? Well it´s Colombian Air Force yes, but as it is related to a spanish force, it can be said in spanish. But try to remember please that this is our english forum, so everybody here writes plain and texan english I have seen the same in Switzerland, they also train their pilots in landing on roads.

raptor_22_stealth Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 (edited) In Germany, they tried to land a F-104 in a motorway... and yes they could, but not before putting the Starfighter in the mud, or what's the same, out of the road There's a video of that in the tube... PD: Wasn't it in Switzerland where fighters were parked near the roads in tunnels, or caves (I don't remember that exactly right now) hanging from the roof? Just like our plastic models in our rooms Edited August 18, 2010 by raptor_22_stealth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W0t4N Posted August 18, 2010 Report Share Posted August 18, 2010 If I am not mistaken, Swedish government put a requirement to Saab in order of being able to land in roads/highways. At least that's what was written in a Viggen (or Drakken maybe) book I had long time ago.. Salu2! /W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Darkness Posted August 19, 2010 Report Share Posted August 19, 2010 In Switzerland highroads are made without any object in the middle so they can be used as airports, with some equipment to maintain the fighters ready to lunch. That´s the way they have to avoid their airbases being destroyed in a first attack and with no air response. They also train hard in knowing their mountains to play with enemy fighters around the valleys, it´s quite impressive. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ETbNov6Uls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
