I tell you what Oscar Duck, that album cover would make for very interesting artwork on the nose of the B-26!

Art imitating life?? Self portrait of pilot on nose of aircraft!

As previously stated, would love to see the Mk.XIV in the air. How far off flyable condition is it?

Had an exchange of correspondence earlier this year with Tony Gaze regarding his little known time with 268 Squadron in mid-1943. For his sins of performing a very low pass and low level handling performance over his home airfield, and getting caught by his CO, he was shuffled off to teach some of the Army Co-operation Command Mustang Squadrons all about the latest fighter tactics. So he had fun for a few weeks flying a Typhoon (to simulate a FW-190) and the Squadron’s Mustangs in sessions of ‘fighter tactics’ and ‘bouncing’. Still fondly remembered by those who survive as some great practice dog fighting sessions, and Tony’s fun time in the Mess.

All the best,

Hey thatz me>>>>

There was a British 1970s heavy rock band called Fuzzy Duck. Their only LP cover looked like this! 😎 Maybe not the most macho nose art….! :dev2:

HE HE HE!!

I asked the pilot’s wife of the SeafuryPilot, at the last Avalon Airshow, a very similar question Dave 😉 ,

Felt like a right dickhead 😮 , as she had NO idea what I was talking about, but I did explain it to her in the end 😀 .

Duckman 🙂 , Please thank that lovely Lady for me again mate, the time she took to talk to me about the plane’s and her hubby, really made the Airshow for me, and that free Club Airshow Chalet S21 round me neck pass was TOP’S, And I had fun chat’s with pilot’s their 😎 .

Pass is now with me little collection, A fantastic 109F tie pin I think(made of lead I guess), from Duxford 43/44 😎 .

A bit of fabric, from a Stringbag’s wing 😎 , sent to me from old Blighty by Pommie Peter Seavixen(thank’s again mate).

Did have more but ex wife 😡 , binned a few item’s, a piece of Canberra bomber that I grabbed, when they removed my favorite Aero graveyard at the Essendon drome some year’s back 🙁 ,

The Dude doing the scrap job, on the 8 bomber’s I think, was a mate of mine from the drome called Ross, I even helped sometime’s, while he dropped Avon’s on to the ground BANG!! 😮 .

Tight BAST*RD 😡 , would not give me even ONE control wheel, and he knew I wanted one, because him and me had before tried to get on off :rolleyes: . BUT now he wanted the buck’s people would give him for such an item.

(P.S. what goe’s around, Ross, in the end was almost arrested or may have been year’s later on the drome 😎 , and removed and banned by the Drome’s Manager, Ross did or tried to knock the Manager’s block off).

Strange dude Ross, but he did try and sell a trainer he designed to the RAAF(had a great mockup I would sit in), But I think they did him over or something, and it got shelved and he got shafted, anyone know :confused: .

Must drop in at the Crabtree Hangar at the Drome, and ask if the know what became of Ross.N :confused: .

Also I had a .50 Bullet aero WW2 stock(8 on a Jug must have had SOME hitting power 😮 ), nuted but looked cool when polished up,
BUT that too went west, EX too me think’s :rolleyes: , but I still have a .303 live somewhere here too,(never let me mate’s hit it :p ).

Could I just ask where the nickname “Oscar Duck” comes from please Randall?
