[QUOTE=Sea Hawk;1066084]I have spent some time tidying up yesterday’s composite list, making it more consistent and going through everyones comments to pick up everything that I could. I have also now added “starter for ten lists” for the Brisfit and for my favourite the Sopwith Snipe (the Bentley BR2 engine is such a work of beauty), what a pity we dont have one over here, especially as when I visited the Smithsonian nearly seven years ago thiers seems so under-appreciated, the “display” having the appearnce of being stuck up on a shelf over a door.

Thanks very much Jeepman and Baldeagle. You have sorted the confusion in my mind. Sounds like I need to buy some more books (not that the wife will like it as I already have well over a thousand, albeit more on Southern Railway subjects than anything else – the only saving grace is that she has a similar number – only the loos in our house don’t have bookcases or bookshelves in them and there are still other books in piles scattered around!).

From the above we now have the following composite list of survivors for teh SE5A and the Camel:

Is there any interest to continue this thread to provide a comprehensive list of some of the other famous planes of WW1? If so I will be pleased to put up some initial, and doubtless inaccurate lists, to be shot down “as a starter for ten”.

Im sure there will be:) How about BE2 variants for a start;)

Gladiator,s looking good:)

18 months to wait? 😮

What about 2007? You know it makes sense 😉

Good things come to those that wait;)

Well done that man!

Excellent news – can’t wait for the new season!! How about a WW2 tableau featuring Storch and Spit?

Calm down, i dont think the Storch is gona be doing anything much next year, all in good time 😉
