    RE: RAF Flying Review Magazines

    She’s across the Channel. Why else do you think i’m able to get hammered 100 miles from home, stay in a hotel, and go to Duxford the next day?

    RE: The movie quote game!

    “For a bonus point – Humphrey Lestocq, who played Flt Lieutenant ‘Batchy’ Salter in Angels One Five, flew what aircraft with which squadron during the war. What was his surname (and if you can tell me his first name, oh boy I’ll be pleased!!!). He crashed twice, never flew with them operationally, was ex-army, and got ‘sacked’ by the CO.
    Actually, you get two points for this!”

    Shame on you!!!!!!

    609 (West Riding) Squadron of course! Do I EVER sully my lips with others? LOL. Pilot Officer J L Gilbert. Was Mr Turnip too. At the same OTU as Roy Payne and Peter Raw (also ex army types) Flew Typhoons, after a fashion! Crashed two. Wasn’t a very good pilot apparently. He joined under Paul Richey and ‘left’ under Roland ‘Bee’ Beamont (who nearly sacked Johnny Baldwin too I hear). Can’t recall where he went after – I think it was North Africa.

    RE: CD Photo Albums

    Have you considered doing a powerpoint show with them? I just did my first last week with about 600 pics – 2 seconds each, with a fade, and it looks great. VERY easy to do. Just jpeg ’em down and load ’em in! Put one in the raffle or something at the January do!

    Go on guys – clear out the books or other clutter that you didn’t like!

    I may have produce something specially – or dump some books. Who knows?

    RE: RAF Flying Review Magazines

    Good idea! Doubtful they would have it in my local one though – portacabins. Good idea though. I saw two on ebay in the states – 1 of each, but the price was excessive, and no time to query postage costs.

    Anyone going aerojumbling soon? LOL.

    RE: Tom writes some more…

    Hmm, a bench might be nice, but…..

    I’ve found a stone. 64 inches tall, and 16 by 16 square. Used to be part of a war memorial. Its looking like costing around £300. Thats sort of like 3 times as much as I definately have, and twice what I think I might have right now. I may have to start flogging some stuff…..

    RE: planes you would like to own

    Those aren’t airplanes.

    Hawker Typhoons and Tempest V’s are airplanes.
