    Put her in the NASM – she is American built and has been sponsored by National Geographic – she could compliment the Concorde.

    Straight into a storage shed to be hidden for many years 🙁

    Anyway I’m sure she’ll end up in good cdare somewhere. Its important however to keep her exactly as she is now, every last sticker, signature and patch.

    As an aside I’m sure the sponsorship logos will make interesting reading in 20 years time.

    Send it over here, were as good with biplanes as you lot are with Beaufighters. We’ll do it cheapor and faster. The UK is also a mine of information regarding the colour green, we used to paint our racing cars that colour you know.

    Maybe we could arrange a swap 😉

    Cracking stuff Ronnie, it was really good to meet you at last yesterday. Thanks for the PS advice I’ll try and put it to good use.

    Dont be a stranger at the next show, we usually meet up beforehand for a couple of small beverages. 😉

    Thanks Rob

    LS as you can see I have loads, however as they were taken during my period of exclusion I dont feel I should post them here.

    What you need is a Konica Minolta 7D. A wonderful camera, very good for the keen amateur like your good self.

    All the usual features, 6 Mega Pixels with a very nice lens.

    Oh and I have one in stock 😀

    Seriously, whatever you buy will be superseded sooner rather than later, what you need to bear in mind is that just because it has been doenst mean you are anyless happy with it than when you bought it. I used my D60 quite a lot over the weekend (in preference to the 1Dmk2), it produced some great shots.

    Doest the camera you like tick all the boxes? If so then get it, dont wait for the next one to come out because something will supersed it.
