    Amazing.

    As much I’ve no interest in replicas, as much I do like the “put back in production” system !

    I don’t understand ChrisDNT. What did you mean?

    Welcome to the forum Gramps.I can;t say for sure what the yellow mark would be for other than to give a visual indication when running when viewed from behind for ground crew or pilot,similar to the yellow tips viewed from the front but of course they wouldn’t need to be as visible,if that makes sense.No doubt someone on here will know for sure.Cheers.

    I saw the prototype of the book on Friday at DX, thanks to Mk12. You will not be disappointed for your money. It weighs about the same as a house brick! The paper quality is superb, as are the reproductions of original photographic material.

    Fantastic ,look forward to it in February.Thank you Roobarb.

    Is TD314 the mk16 that was at Upper Hill near Leominster and then went to America?

    Saw her back in Sept or Oct and there looked to be a fair bit of work to do,could be wrong though.Tom W would be the one to give an update.

    Thanks for your reply 92fis.It seems that I am not the only one having trouble recieving my W.Digest,although they led me to believe that I was the only one in this country having a problem with it.

    Got mine Thursday,Aeroplane came through the post on Thursday too,and that had been in the shops since a week the Tuesday before, Post was late.Has anyone experienced problems with recieving Warbird Digest,my last 4 issues never arrived,and after emailing them I got the first 2 but the last 2 they seem to be ignoring it hoping that I’ll go away.

    Sorry to hear about all the problems that you’ve been experiencing with the printers.It’s hard to get anything done straightforwardly nowadays,it seems.Good luck Tuesday.I too have my original paperback copy and the follow up hardback,Robert.It will be interesting to see the changes over time.
