As usual, even if it represents deadly weapons, your artwork devoted to planes is awesome, and this impressive one is by no means an exception!

Thank you To me they are not deadly weapons, more like nostalgia trips

The planes by themselves: ok. And they would fly as easily, as graciously, without the weapons...
Ok, ok... just joking...

It is with planes as it is with nature, there can be a strange beauty and elegance to deadly things ... such as tigers, leopards, eagles and the super cute lynx to name a few!

I hate weapons, as they are most of the time wrongly used

What is Lawn Darts?

paws4thot In reply to Lynxander [2014-12-26 14:32:13 +0000 UTC]

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawn_dar… discusses the original game. When used in the context of aircraft, it refers to a type with a higher than usual tendency to crash into flat terrain nose first from cruising altitude.

I keep forgetting that you're not a native English speaker. Sorry.

Ah, okay, I didn't know either of them So the F-16 is considered a bit unreliable then?
There is a small flock of F-18's nesting in Finland.

As I implied, it's common colliqial speak. It's not always due to aircraft unreliability though; on some types the problems were with pilot training and/or misbehaviours (for instance, the F-16 has a tendancy to flame out and flat spin if you pull too much G and then hit a jet wash).

Ah, okay. Training use of military aircraft is no doubt very different in different countries, for fairly obvious reasons.

Ah, jet wash is turbulence forming behind a plane as it passes. When I googled it the first result I got was a self service car wash in Finland

As you say, training regimes vary (and aren't always appropriate to local weather if you buy the manufacturer's regime for their home nation with the aircraft).

As for jet wash, actually the same potential confusion exists in English speaking countries as in Finland: The same phrase means turbulence behind an aircraft and a high-pressure water sprayer normally used for car washes.
