    What are the chances of dismantling the Defiant, and lining her up on the flight line with the Spitfires, Hurricanes and Gladiators.?

    If you are talking about the Defiant at Hendon. I believe it is already dismantled and under restoration with the guys who restored the Battle for them. So I doubt it could be put back together at the moment.

    I believe you maybe thinking of a Tempest rather than a Typhoon.

    As of June last year was still awaiting its engine back from overhaul.

    The show I would like to see come back was one that was on BBC2, it was called The Air show and presented by Julian Tutt. They have the perfect presenter to bring it back now in James May.

    IWM has two Zero’s

    The first, which I believe is the one skyshooter is on about, is now at Lambeth.

    The second was originally at Lambeth but now at Duxford, is the one R4118 is talking about.

    Was in Oz from end of Nov 2017 until Jan 2018. Not sure about aircraft but there is a tank museum outside Cairns http://ausarmour.com/

    You have the RAAF museum and Australian National Aviation museum in Melbourne, though these were two that I missed while I was out there even though I was in Melbourne for a week.

    Also recommend if you can get to Brisbane taking the trip up to the Queensland Air Museum.

    As to the Belfast this was it state in Dec 2017.

    If anybody wants to see some great footage from Reno check out the following channel on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/user/FlightChops/videos

    He has been following the Sanders crew and has some nice footage of the Sea Furies transiting to Reno as well as onboard footage from both the Sea Fury flown by Dennis Sanders and one of the Mustangs so far. He’s going to be updated throughout the week.

    His channel also features a lot of vintage aircraft especially the Harvard as he trained with the Canadian Historical Aircraft Association and went solo.

    Police Story 1 & 2

    Starring and directed by Jackie Chan.

    Police Story 1

    The

    Royal Hong Kong Police Force

    is planning a major undercover sting called “Operation Boar Hunt” to arrest crime lord Chu Tao (

    Chor Yuen

    ). Inspector Chan Ka-Kui (or Kevin Chan in some versions) is part of the operation, along with undercover officers stationed in a shanty town. After arresting Chu, Chan’s next assignment is to protect Chu Tao’s secretary, Selina Fong (

    Brigitte Lin

    ), who plans to testify in court about Chu Tao’s illegal activities. The trial fails due to Selina’s tampering with evidence. Though Chu Tao is released on bail, he wants revenge against Ka-Kui, framing him for the murder of fellow policeman Inspector Man. Meanwhile, Selina, realizing Chu’s criminality, goes to his office at a shopping mall to download incriminating data from Chu Tao’s computer system. Chu Tao and Chan notice this and head to the mall. In the ensuing fight, Ka-Kui defeats all of Chu Tao’s henchmen while the police apprehend Chu and the briefcase.

    Police Story 2

    The story picks up with Chan Ka-Kui being demoted to a traffic cop for causing so much damage in his apprehension of Chu. Chu has been released from prison on the pretense that he is terminally ill, and Chu and his clan continue to harass Chan and his girlfriend May as Chan gets reinstated to the detective unit when criminal bombers begin extorting money from businessmen.
