I have heard no rumours regarding a forthcoming 40D, however the release of the 10 mega pixel 400D does make me wonder why the 30D was put on the market!

Between the Photokina (next week) and the PMA (February 2007) a (let’s call it a) 40D will be released. So with the season almost over, it might be a good idea to wait a few months, that is, if you have time to wait.

Who cares about that Spitfire. There is a good reason it went, and the entire deal it went for isn’t known. If it only went for that derelict Firefly it should be a lousy deal, but it didn’t. As there are still more than 1 of that type left in Holland the prospect of seeing a Firefly in 5 years or so to me is well worth loosing a Spitfire. Liking it is something else, and all th UK based members who don’t see the problem should cry havoc if some rich Japanese should buy PO-S from the RAF Museum. BW Roger

Here is aq pic of the tailsection of a Dutch Navy Firefly. Might fit nice to the recently arrived tailless one. BW Roger

Well, I hope that the Firefly can be restored to a full Dutch MLD example. I also hope that H53 will remain its current livery whenever it takes to the air, but I am very afraid it will be repainted into a full RAF example. At least now we have a Firefly. I can remember another swap a decade ago when a Dutch Spitfire was swapped for 1 or 2 plastic examples. I wonder if H53 will be on the static the 13th at Duxford.

Don’t know, somebody saw it enroute.

How complete is that Firefly, as a lot is missing in the pic? Is that all there is, or are parts as the wings included? BW Roger
