@Whabang

Can you post some Gripen pics here?

Hum,
tnx for the correction...

So i presume i can't say `the Grip` ?

i was thinking more of a scheme like this

Rather than the usual grays or greens

No problem!
You could call it the Grip, although the Griffin would be more apropriate. :-)

That was a cool colour scheme, BTW.

@Blob,

The Tigermeet thingy is normally an excuse for the Dutch, Germans and Belgians to paint some very lurid schemes on their planes, including tiger stripes liberally airbrushed everywhere.

The Saab scheme I was referring to is as follows:

hum, i thought that Norwegian F-5 looked cool, in a sort of 70s retro way...

but then again i think zebra stripes always look good on landrovers...

What's black & white and eats like a horse.....

Oops.

I like the schemes the Russians use for the artic / naval based SU-27s. They're a kind of blue / turquiose camo pattern that's a lot nicer than it sounds.

Anyway I think I'm going to get my MTB frame sprayed in camo now...
