    And let the pilot be a flyer, unsophisticated, rough, Cocky if possible but the one that can handle the most serious, sever and unexpected situation. Yep , that one will certainly have to be alone in the “cockpit” for obvious economic reason (cost of training), but let’s bring back the Stuntman!

    I assume you don’t mean for commercial aviation ?

    Strange. When I looked at the picture of the “This is a Phoenix Currie Super Wot” G-BGES

    The first thought that came into my mind, was that it was a scale model 🙂
    It just doesn’t look right.

    Talking to a chap I know tonight, and he was telling me he is off to the US in March.
    Among other things, to take a flight in FIFI.

    Watched The Equalizer at the weekend.
    Or how Denzel Washington wiped out the Russian Mafia single handedly 🙂

    Here’s the link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/130143587@N02/with/15747703303

    Please let me know if it doesn’t work and I’ll keep working on Flickr. Tom.

    Works fine on my Firefox Tom.

    Lovely pictures, and as a non-techie type of person, I have nothing but admiration for the people who
    designed and built these beautiful engines.

    I used to love watching their programmes, along with those of Armand and Michaela Denis.

    Colour TV was still a distant dream in those days.

    I thought Farage came over very well on the Andrew Marr programme this morning.

    Certainly a very capable aircraft. I don’t know how they can even contemplate taking these out of service.

    Then we get to televised sport. Where nowadays no sport is televised unless there is massive advertising involved.

    Took my first visit there last weekend! Didn’t have time to go in but wanted to stop by and check out the setup and everything. Looking forward to spending a day there.

    Depending what your interests are, you’ll need a full day (and then some) to see everything.

    Anyone know what the F-15 colour scheme will be, or is that a “secret” 🙂 ?
