If it has to be from that list I wouldn’t bother

From the list….the Provost….a lovely aeroplane to fly (only had two P2 flights in one (and thats up for sale at Shoreham). So come on 6…15…22…33..41..47…

nah Martin you meant…

1. HARVARD II
2. HARVARD III
3. HARVARD IV
4. T-6D
5. T-6F
6. T-6G
7. SNJ 2 ….etc 😀

Ok, you’re right, but I cant just list Harvards people will think I’m nuts (please don’t tell anyone, ok?).

Still think they would be in that order and then a MK.IIA or III and a SNJ-2 (akin HVD Mk.I), a Yale (not sure what they look like) and a Ceres to make things a little different.

Best wishes to you and everyone else. I’ve only been here for just over a month and regret not joining earlier. Its the best place on the net.

[QUOTE=Airofoil]If the numbers came up which one from the following would you buy and why:
1 Fouga Magister
2 Piston Provost
3 Jet Provost
4 SAAB Safir
5 D.H.Tiger Moth
6 D.H.Chipmunk
7 L-39

From the list I would pick the Provost first as being one of the nicest aeroplanes I’ve ever had the chance to fly in and then the Chipmunk.

But if it was anything else would be an Auster Mk.9 (another nice aeroplane), a Stearman and either a Harvard Mk.IIB or a T-6F/SNJ-6.

Yep thats our baby –

heres a model of what she looked like in the film (I would post a screen shot but EOTS hasnt been released as a region 2 dvd yet so i cant do a screen grab)

TT

Umm now I thought I had seen it in the shops (but then again probably had my head in the clouds as usual). Just checked and its not available until 6 March 2006.

The Hangar 11 Staggerwing has a UK military history anyway IIRC. If not UK then US mil…

If it does go back into Military Colours, I think it would be nice if it wore the scheme it had when at Donibristle. As all Fighter Collection aircraft are in very authentic schemes, perhaps this will happen. Who knows…..

I have at home a lot of Auster magazines which are due for collection by the dustman on Wednesday (need a pre Christmas chuck out to make room for the books I’ve bought myself), so will have a look for photos of the Auster concerned. I know it pops up in a few issues.
