    I've noticed all sorts of 'displays' on that building over the years but can't remember one as impressive as this. How on earth did they get it there?

    They would of needed a substantial crane to lift it,as the aircraft weighs in at around 5 tons empty.
    Note the steel renforcement (rsj's) supporting the roof.Overall an expensive exercise I would suggest.

    Just pips the Seahawk as the most beautiful jet aircraft yet built.

    Who wouldn't like something similar in there own back/front yard.I think its fantastic,a king tiger tank perhaps.?
    Blutto,its got some stiff opposition out there.
    Wonder if anyone else has some similar photos of military hardware being used for advertising/business promotion etc.
