Flying Legends update

Absolutely correct, few weeks ago – engine quit but pilot unhurt.

BENTWINGBOMBER what is your problem i have never heard such
gibberish,what fantastic scene in thetford forest is that,camper van whos camper van,you will be doing the gay gordons next.

By the way you seem to know a bit on corsairs if your posts are anything to go by,i hear the ex- PAUL MORGAN FG-1D has done a wheels up is that correct.

Bentwing bomber myself and droptank are not the same person if you don’t believe me have the IPS adresses checked.:p

Bentwing,

He has obviously gone to Iraq in search of Hawkers finest. Good luck to him!

droptank aka digby

Fantastic scenes

[i]Originally posted by DROPTANK…as for the KI 43 have they still got it?. [/B]

So I was told a month back, doubt that they plan to get rid of it unless they’ve done a deal with something else.

Tom.

Droptank, perhaps you are already on the plane to the Gulf as we speak….

Cheers Mark V I will try it as soon as I can find the piccie for Nielly

Hi Droptank,

Can’t believe you have nothing to say about the ‘Iraq Survivor’ thread – check it out.

Now your talking Digby. PS: how did you get on with the info on the little pics?

Droptank steady on old boy we all like plenty of curves up front specially at Legends if the sun is out:D 😀 😀 😀

Spot on MARK V but getting those chequers correct should be fun,
look at the P47 next time you visit,i know the cowls are different
but its still curves everywhere at the front.

I for one am going to watch the progress on the Mustang as closely as I can. It certainly reminds me of a few years back when the high back 51 appeared at the last moment and they worked their miracles and it was flying in the show. Someone said that this Mustang (the D model) actually flew in to Duxford so surely it cannot be an impossible task to have it flying for next month. Having said that when I visiting Hangar 2 at the weekend there were an awful lot of pieces missing and lots of wires sprouting from the cockpit so there is obviously still a lot to do. If it is going to be in 78th FG markings I can see someone having their work cut out with all those little black and white squares to set out and mask off. Perhaps it will just fly in bare metal – the important thing is, after all, the fact that it flies (or will fly), it could be painted later in the year.

ROBBO dont be touchy just dreaming,they do a great job as i said yesterday when i went on sunday they were all on the P51D,should be a great show .

Ironing!!

Robbo
I’ve got a couple of shirts that need doing if your offering:D

Maybe we need a virtual Legends – Seafire FR47, Typhoon, Tempest, Mosquito and Hornet. Now I am really dreaming…

The P 61 is nothing more than a rumour it has not even been talked of on this forum for ages i believe. as for the KI 43 have they still got it?.

You missed the Oscar and the P61 ( sorry let the cat out of the bag now!!!)

SEA FURY VX653 SPITFIRE F22 PK624 GLADIATOR1 LA 11 P51 C
YAK 1 CR 42 P 39Q P40 B P36 A P 38L ? etc etc sorry chaps only dreaming

Well, I certainly cannot wait to see 12 Spitfires flying. This is what makes Legends the best show in Europe for me, that together with the unusual and rare items (hopefully the La-9, CAA permitting). What does everyone else look forward to about this airshow?
