Almacger 1,442 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 On 29/01/2021 at 03:12, sandyboyblue said: Gents, I very much doubt it will happen, for the following reasons off the top of my head: 1. They are not a private company and are funded by the Tax payers money, how could they justify that? 2. The personnel in the RAF are as effected by Covid measures as the rest of the globe. 3. They are booked up well in advance, and if still operating at present are usually warm weather training early spring. I love the spin on it, and the charity bit, sorry to be a spoiler. And before anybody gets in a tizz about my reply, I’m a serving member and have been for 30+ years. Booooo, ok, what about plan B? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spuddy Zelda 64 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Do something spectacular if not The Red Arrows e.g. 55 gun salute around Ibrox, and firework display using all the right colours, and a plane to fly over Ibrox with a banner trailing with an appropriate message. Any suggestions for the message? 😁 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnbroe Bear 258 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Sure its been said before....but what about a massive controlled drone display similar to what was done at new year but only bigger and better. Fireworks are alright but they will be going off all across the country so lets think out the box. Has to be something extraordinary, imaginative and most importantly of all. to *fuck it right into them" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about a giant 55 getting shone on the campsies at night for a few months 😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoGerfficiency 137 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Take it that it was somebody pissed suggesting it. The RAF would get a backlash for it and the military don't like bad media, believe me I know. Sad, but the truth in Scotland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
