Facebook Restoration Threads

Since many projects have their own Facebook thread, I’d thought I’d start a thread with all the links. These are not museum or business pages, but restoration pages or groups for specific airframes. Feel free to add projects!

Thank you for posting, great to be able to see.

Unfortunately I do not use Facebook, but it amazes me that people on it think every has it and your strange if you do not.

I tried it years ago, found it to be very disjointed , or am I just old?

Whilst I believe that Facebook is a very poor resource in a lot of ways, and spreads interesting content all over the place, such that most you will never see, we seem to be stuck with it, so may as well try and pull some of this stuff into a central place where it has more chance of being widely appreciated. 

Today the Historic Aircraft Collection posts the pleasing news that the ultra rare DH-9 has awakened from its long sleep ( engineering) and flew yesterday from DX.

Thanks Peter! I left when the new forum came about. I see it has been “adjusted” somewhat. I’ll see if I can return now and then and do some updating. Links in my original post do seem to be working for me.

MOD Note..

 OK I found out why there are so many problems with links leading back to this page. Do NOT use the link tab when trying to post the link as somethings wrong with it on their end. Remove the [URL}  From your links and they work fine. Also make sure you are copying the correct link as some of them were wrong..

all pages  now working correctly!

 

Fouga your on your own for the original post and its links mate! way too many for me to tackle!

Peter – it’s not just you. Pretty much ALL of the links in old posts do that. Which Key has known about for months.
