And now for something completely different: Spitfire Competition

What with missing threads, deleted threads and strange goings on I thought about how we could all focus on something new and close to all our hearts…yes, a new Spitfire Thread!!

So, prize for the best judged Spitfire Pic or info posted this week…:)

Yet another awesome photo… 🙂 …but a FW or ME a little out in the distance coming in head on would make us get a view some had,but not all lived to tell about it…

Well done to the winners and everyone, some fantastic and varied photos.

Perhaps we should do something like this every month for a different aircraft? 😉

Don’t think he’s got enough ammo for that!

My image and one other are currently corrupted by severe cropping at the bottom. I suspect the revenge of EN830.:)

I’m gutted my stealth picture didn’t win, however I have better and more productive ways of exacting revenge 😉

I am sorry to say that I ended this early but it has been a lot of fun, many thanks to all who contributed. I ended it after learning of the permanent exclusion of Tangmere, a key contributor to this Forum. I look forward to chatting again when he is reinstated…enough said.

Well, thank you, a lot of fun

I am sure the ‘Tangmere’ situation will be resolved in the course of time. This is not the usual moderator/poster ‘spat’.

So far as I’m aware the first time this has ever been published. Kindly copied by an old boy from his album some years ago; MA262 ‘at Abu Quir, 1943’.

Been meaning to dig it out for a while and pleased I did ‘cos I found my missing copy of the Stirling File at the same time!
