    Yuck!

    Cees

    :eek::eek:

    How can you say that Cees!

    To be honest, I saw it yesterday, and it looked nice. As long as its next livery will be of a Schreiner one, I am more than happy.

    It’s about time you get over here then.:cool::D
    At this rate construction will be finished before the year is out.

    Well, it was a nice Sunday afternoon. Checked my pics, and they are even better than I expected. You wanted to know how much I took, well 78, although I am going to delete all the “not smiling ones”:diablo:

    There are also a lot of Buchon pics around here, together with other Spanish vintage machines. BW Roger

    This is turning into a surviving Tiffy bits thread, not that I mind though.
    But I noticed that the Belgian Sabre engine bits that were donated to BAHAAT a few years ago have been restored and put on display.
    Where’s EHVB when you need him;)

    EHVB said that this aircraft was on the bottom of the sea at Zeeland… so you have to dive to it…

    So NO B-29 on the dry parts of the Netherlands 😉

    Grtz,

    TG1984

    It ditched in the late Fourties, and took almost 2 hours before it sank. It is there, complete at 30 meters below the surface. Next year we might bring something up, but that are only [lans so far. It has been discussed severall times here at FPF in the past. Here in Spain, we also have the location of 5 Dornier (Super) Wals that were sunk at the end of the war. Thats also a nice project.

    In Zeeland, but you have to dive for it. It is complete.

    As there is already a complete B29 in Holland (in which they have no interest), I am sure that no Kee Bird parts made it to Holland. Those parts by by the way, were all in place where Kee Bird ended or 2 years ago.

    I am reading it now in the Dutch (first) edition. Unfortunatly, the paper is turned all brown, and is so detoriated it breaks into small pieces. BW Roger

    Yep, I made it, and with some luck Verviers is already on my list. Why was it modified like that (or better said, was it modified before or after being retired by the Army)?

    I was also able to make it. We left aaround 00.00 hr and were on the field some 8 hours later, the returntrip was more dramatic, arriving home around 03.50 and up for work at 07.00 Getting too old for this kind of trips, but it was well worth it with the almost 50 Austers. Strangest one for me was the one on the pic. Had never seen one of those before. Most beautifull one for me was the Canadian AF example.
