Yes, before you all choke on your coffee/cereal/lunch/dinner etc, you did read that right! :diablo:
How was the radio triggered on a wartime Mustang? I’m presuming there was some sort of switch the pilot could activate?
Also, how did the pilot release the canopy in the event of being shot down/crashing??
Such things are not too clear to me! 😀

I know the place, other than to drop off a couple of Hurricane panels I’ve not been there since the Yak 18 first arrived.

Very nice airfield, a little short for the B24 now. Has a great atmosphere and is well supported by local pilots, there is very often something of interest going on there. Plus excellent food, what more do you need.

nice airfield isnt it? shame no B-24s left over here like to see one there!

What on earth were you doing at Old Buck?????? For the record I have never been brave enough to try a Mustang Burger, maybe that’s why I’ve lost best part of 3 stone this year!!!!!
