Country: | I saw on the first page the pic on santa at the cockpit of an f-117. Can you imagine how bad of a kid you'd have to be to get bombed by him?

Country: | Hallo guys,
According to V2 suggestion I thought it is a good idea to start again the thread in 2007.
Although Lanc has not been on-line for a long time he would be glad of it.
I know it is a bit later but I think we can be on time when the Christams day comes.So guys I encourage you to take part in this Lanc's Annual X-mass Photo Competition.The rules are still the same.For all new members re-print of these.
rules-
1) the shot must contain snow, or some sort of christmas decoration
2) it must have some sort of plane, aviator or something with a strong aviation link
3) the winner will be the most festive shot
4) the prize has yet to be decided
5) The shot must be a photo not a artwork, photos of artwork don't count either
There is my candidate.
