Default Su-27SK(Upgraded), Su-27KUB & new Flanker book

If anyone is interested........

I have just added a page of photos to my Flankers website showing the
new Su-27SK(Upgraded)variant - plus a few new photos of the Su-27KUB
side-by-side naval variant.

I have also added a short review of a new book by Andrei Fomin on the
Su-33 & Su-27KUB.

If you go to http://www.flankers.co.uk/ then click on Flankers,
Variants - then the appropriate link for the new Su-27SKU & Su-27KUB
pages.

Clicking on Flankers, Flanker References, Su-33 Naval Epic should take
you to the book review.

Enjoy!

Nice page... Maybe you know the answer to this question....

Why do the Russians always paint their instrument panel in that horrible
shade of light blue. It makes them look unbelievably chintzy and cluttered,
regardless of the aircraft or it's technology. It looks even worse when they
invariably get older and more used and dirty. Even the Flanker and Blackjack
cockpits look like something right out of a 1970's Caddilac pimpmobile with
that color. What's wrong with black and dark grey? Hides the dirt, looks
cool and modern.
