Just finished my next DVD release, a compilation of footage from my ill-fated
“Flying Machines Monthly” series from 1995/1996

Flying Machines DVD

I’ve also been looking at my Fighter Meet Videos from 1996 & 1997, would anyone be interested if I put these onto DVD?

Great news Steve.

I don’t think anyone would object if you put the Fighter Meets onto DVD! 😉

Thanks for the HU Webpilot.

I caught this on Ceefax earlier. Good news if it is approved. 🙂

Now all we need is for Alex Henshaw to be knighted. :rolleyes:

People are going to start to think I’m paying for these kind comments! 🙂

Oh, I wondered what that cheque you sent me was for! 😀

Seriously though, I must get round to ordering these DVD’s. 😮

I remember being in in the kitchen, whilst the television was on in the lounge. The news was droning on as ever and then I heard the words ‘second world war aircraft’ ‘display’ and ‘crashed’ so rushed into the room in time to see my favourite aircraft crash horrifically, taking the two unfortunate crew with it.

A bad, bad day.

I remember coming home after a days Cricket, only to see it on Sky’s late night news. Sadly there was a touch of deja vu about it, as only the week before, I returned home to see the news reports of the loss of TFC’s P38J along with Hoof Proudfoot.

Not a good month for the UK Airshow & Historic Aircraft scene. 🙁

Ironically, just a few weeks before the accident, I was treated to RR299 flying over here at low level en route to Shoreham, which is a memory I will always treasure, as it had been a number of years since I last saw her in ‘the flesh’.

Mustang G-BIXL – Owned at the time of filming & still is by Robs Lamplough.

Mustang N51JJ – Owned by TFC at the time of filming and later registered G-BTCD. Now with OFMC as Ferocious Frankie.

The SHF P51 was resident in Belgium last year but not sure if she still is. :confused:

Done one of those already – “Flight of the Blenheim”

Steve, I think you need to change your homepage on your forum profile here as it’s your old address,(http://www.airshows.tv), which has now been taken over by Planes.tv or Aviation Action as they used to be!

I agree, an opportunity missed. The last time around (is it really that long ago) Key did an excellent job with some top information and excellent photographs and features within their Special Edition. This one seems to have been put together by some different people and is rather tedious and has some glaring inaccuracies. Lets hope their special monthly faetures are a bit more on the ball. Can’t wait for the book! 🙂

I enjoyed that ‘Spitfires On The Wing’ supplement issued a few years ago.

I believe Mark12 compiled it, and it sounds like they should have hired him again to do surviving the Spit census a few issues ago, and by the sounds of it, this special! 😡

Very nice!

Thanks for the pic Pen Pusher. 🙂

Not too much of a suprise though as I had already read on the BBMF site that this was the scheme it would be wearing after it’s ‘major’. 😉

If everything comes together as planned, there is a small chance she may debut at Shuttleworth in May – SCOOP!!!

Ummm, I really hope so!

Look forward to seeing it tear up the Bedfordshire sky! 😀

A forgotten gem?

If it wasn’t for the Gipsy……..

HP

How true.

But whenever WWII comes up, I tend to think of big noisey piston engines that powered fighters & bombers! 😮

But for classic engineering excellence and longevity of type and developement it would have to be the Merlin…nothing else sounds like it or evokes such a response from the public as a whole…the Griffon is a fine engine but always sounds like it it has a couple of plugs fouled!

I agree with Dave.

Well, maybe not quite about the Griffon though! 🙂

For pure longevity and development, the Merlin has to be the engine that takes this award for me.

And what a sound! 😀

Like the Spitfire, it always amazed me how Rolls kept on developing it and developing it, attempting to get the maximum performance from it, and also coming up with variants that would suit one particular role or another.

Remarkable!

I guess there is a lot of truth when people say that the Spitfire without the Merlin would have been like Laurel without Hardy!

I guess also the P&W R2800 maybe a contender for this title too. Again, a magnificent engine and developed in many models and power ratings that powered a many of American greatest Fighters.

I have it in VHS too somewhere.

I hope they do release it on DVD someday.

Always thought it was a great piece of entertainment, but then you’d expect that as it was written by John Sullivan, with of course, a top class cast. 🙂

Group Captain Barker to Archie: Have your heard about Pearl Harbour?

Archie: Is that the girl form the laundry? 😀
