This year Santa will be riding a MiG. Merry Christmas.

You don't have to be a communist to fly a Mig even NATO had them for a while.

The Swiss flew Messerschmitts during the second world war, I don't think this automatically made them fascists.....

Finland is a democracy already since 1919 and has a choosen president. During the cold-war Finland was neutral, like Sweden and many other countries.

Cheers,

SkippyBing, the other four are Filet Mignon, Medium, Rare and Well Done. Not sure where Rudolf fits in here. He may have been considered unsuitable by the Foods Standard Agency inspector due to his unhealthy looking red nose.
 
MudMarine, they're not Commie stars those are Christmas stars :icon_lol:

I'm most impressed with some of the posters' knowledge of all things Christmasy. Well done. Who can name Santa's reindeer .... without looking at Wikipedia?

Blitzen, comet, cupid, donner, vixen, prancer, dancer, dasher and number nine Rudolph the red nosed reindeer (too much Jonnie Walker red made his nose that way!hehe)
 
About Pamela Anderson....

In this particular case I think I prefer high quality fake above low quality originals. :kilroy:

Hmmmm..... Silicones, botox and a sidedish of hepatitis! :barf:

I really do not understand why men are still attracted to her these days..

As for the MiG's: IIRC Finland bought those because they had to wait for the Saab Draken and they needed another fighter to bridge the gap. I think the MiG's outlasted the Drakens!
The titanium used in the MiG's was recycled and used by Nokia for their cellphones. So if you ask Santa for a new phone you might still get a MiG!
:d
 
So he is a double agent?!

That may be the only viable explanation -

-He comes in via a North Polar route,
-gets tracked yearly by NORAD
-wears a Red suit
-is led by a Red nosed Reindeer (DNA testing has not confirmed whether -it's Finnish or Russian)
-creeps in while everyone sleeps
-has reportedly given gifts to now-disgraced investment bankers
-runs either a secret sweat-shop or a forced labour camp of Elves
-even gives away free coal (global warming agent-provocateur?)
-amazingly was never investigated by Sen McCarthy or J.Edgar Hoover
-has never been 'outed' by Dick Cheney

Conspiracy? Magic?

I can't wait for the Anderson Cooper 360 investigation!:kilroy:

I'm pretty sure the poem goes:

On Dasher! On Dancer! On Prancer and Vixen!
On Clinton! On Regan! On Carter and Nixon!






Moderator, please note how bipartisan I was. :mixedsmi:

Clown's have massively over sized shoe's as a gag to make people laugh. Pam Anderson has clown jugs they're so massively over sized they're laughable.:costumes: There isn't anything about her that doesn't scream scankey! At least to me but to each his own.:ernae:
 
Lot's of conversation about Finland and Pamela, considering this was Santa thread :kilroy:
 
Huub, Santa or not.... that's one sweet lookin Mig-21. :applause: :ernae: Where can a guy get a copy of it? Or when?

I wish I had a picture of Santa sitting on The 380th Bomb Wing's B-47 on the old air base up at Plattsburgh, NY.
 
Looks like the good old Capt'n Sim MiG-21 to me. It's for Fs2002 but works great in Fs9 too. Don't know about FsX.

:)
 
GT182, I started off with Michael Davies' gmax MiG but started again from scratch as I wanted to use my own 'lazy boy' method of texturing (which is why you don't see much of the starboard side of the MiG in the video :mixedsmi:).

If I have time I'll do a proper job of the external model and release it for folk to play around with.
