Great work as always Jimbo. Look forward to the day the defense force will be displayed as a whole.
By the way is there a tutorial of your painting style on your site or blog. Let us know.
Thanks

Still to come (and thanks to all that contributed to this list).
Fuel Bowser
Ork firefighters (Maniakal Grotz with an excuse to sqkirt othuz)...
Ork ambulance equivalents (Something like "Mad Doc Jimbo'z Recycled Body Partz" or "Ork Boss Primark's BBQ Wagun!")...
Ork personnel transports to get the pilutz and crew out to the rokkit fightaz!
Ork mekanik kar...
Ork winch and mechanikal arm kar...
Ork bulldozah (or would they call it a squigdozah?) for clearing all of the "akksidentz" off the runway.
A luggage loader - to get the loot on and off (think airport suitcase baggage trains).
A huge set of steps for the pilots, complete with a egotistical flyboy perched on the top.
Recovery wagons, for carting crashed Fightas back to the Mek's workshop...
Unarmed Wartraks for towing planes on the ground.

I know someone who worked in Siberia in the 80s. He said that it was very common there to just push crashed planes off the runway and then leave them there. A bit disconcerting when you are seeing it for the first time as you have really no idea how long they were there... Over time people would scavenge the valuable bits (Al, Ti, seats, etc.) I would guess that Orkz would take a similar approach to clean-up and recovery.
Nice work!

Certainly sounds very Orky. Will do something similar for the Airfield._________________ Jimbo

When I was visiting Estonia several years ago, a person told me that in a (then ex-) Soviet airbase nearby they received a certain amount of fuel each month. If they couldn't use it all, they just poured it to the ground as they'd receive the same amount no matter how much was left and there were no additional storage fecilities.
So toxic pools would certainly be in order.

Hi!
They spent so much on their military inefficiently that they bankrupted themselves. Couldnt keep up with the West in that regard.
