Excellent shots, love ther cold colour tones

Quite standard now im afraid. Even as a garage we cant get number plates made up for customers anymore for MOT failures etc. Even when they are elderly

Its such a shame they couldn`t squeese a Shak in the somewhere. I always thought it missing along with a Buccaneer…. The big Tarp/canvas sides at either end of the building are only meant to be opened a few times otherwise it shortens the life of them i believe.

Welcome back ya,all. Must have been some big finger wagging somewhere 😉

Just goes to show the power in these big motors and the danger of engine failure on a twin at low speed.. You could see he had begun rotation near enough the same point the motor gave up the ghost proper and turned into a draggy lump.. At take off power The motor would still be giving power up until a point where it failed catastrophically. Unfortunately the high power setting would make the engine fail in a massive way but also very quickly at a point where every ounce of airspeed is crucial.

The Mossi was a killer for this but its amazing to think that the DC3 Dakota was designed to carry on flying if it had an engine cut on take off, depending on how heavy a loads carried of course.

Great shots. The T33 / hanger shots nice
