phwoar!

yesterday whilst headin home in the bus mindin me own biz - with the *telly blarin the speaker's off -

the trailer for this film came on which left me totally gobsmacked. no, it's not what you's are thinkin. it's em incredible flyin machines, and the gobwatering dogfight's.

::eyes glazed::

the title is a tad rather misleadin. i thought the filmmaker's meant this beauty - given the delta wing's - as it turned out, a fictitious plane based on a soon-to-be rolled out replacement of the F-111 - the FB-111 switchblade. or so claimed the trivia wag.

that's hollywood for ye. regardless, i'm waitin for the dvd release instead of spendin 8 quid at the cinemas. not that i'm a tightwad, on the contrary, i can slo-mo the dogfight scenes just to admire the aircraft.

talk of which, perhaps it's time i replace the spitfire desktop wallpaper with said aircraft.

btw, pertaining to the aircraft carrier that's got a starrin role - i hosted one of the sailor's through this programme - back in early february when it came a-visiting after the tsunami tragedy. it was a humbling experience, meetin and chatting with personnel of one of the most famous carrier's. as well as hearin the sad tales of said tragedy.

though it was a real shame that a visit to the carrier was not possible due to security reason's - no thanks to 9/11.


* aye, there are telly's on buses over ere, involuntarily paid for by us commuter's. through rising bus fare's that is.

credit's: ta muchly to the site owner's whose aircraft piccies i shamelessly nicked without permission.
