Bird & Fortune vs The EuroFighter

[@roman48]

something to listen to again and again, brilliant humor!

[@as368uk]

RIP John Bird reunited with JF

[@Aeronaut1975]

I literally spat my coffee out when he mentioned Spain and the ears/paint.

[@HopSkipLimp]

Glad you like. Dated, true, but still accurate. More on the way.

[@arturlome7102]

So funny, only tuned into Bremner to see what these two were up to.

[@derdersoft]

Found the bit about the MIG-29 and the sales to Malaysia brilliant.

[@Fleshious]

Brilliant!

[@laxeystu8096]

Very funny and some truth (EF does a lot more than tackle S Hussein), but the alternative would have been buying American - you get cheaper planes, but Europe would be out of the combat aircraft business even earlier.

[@alanconway94]

Originally, it was known as the Future European Fighter Aircraft - FEFA; or, as the Americans, rightly, called it "Five Europeans Fucking Around". So much so, in fact, that the French left to build the Rafale. It's about 45 years since the UK last designed and built an effective combat aircraft on its own. 6th richest country in the world - still nowhere near it.

[1:02] thats a tremedous acheivement in itself :D...i came back to rehear these great comedians after hearing trumps "I have had made a tremedous difference" :D in nov2018

[@geoffdillon4637]

Look up the BP and the Railways interview too then. There’s a “tremendous difference” in there.😃

[@piccalillipit9211]

GENIUS satire

[@JohnnyWishbone85]

That's Hindi for "we can't afford it." They can get a much better deal on Su-35s.

[@brendanrussell3372]

I love B&F and these skits are wonderful. But, in this case, the "Russia is no longer a threat" and "Russia is our ally" has not aged well.

[@MONGOLFIGHTER1]

INDIA have rejected euro fighter... as out off date... they are not buying

[@MrHistorian123]

They're not buying it because the French offered them a bung. The Rafale is a decent plane but Eurofighter is a class above. It's also bloody loud, as one is passing over my house at this moment and I can't hear my laptop!!

[@moggoon]

The old Tornados make a proper noise. Eurofighter is really quiet in comparison. When the Tornados did their low flight training over my home the windows rattled, but no such luck when the Eurofighter came into service.

[@kingdomofwitches]
