When will passengers listen, keep the seat belt fastened at ALL TIMES? No sympathy for deaf people who know better.
Here is a start, the manual for the product! Welcome to the Forum and good luck with your project.:)
Following the thread on the King Alfred tower crash, here is a fairly fluid list of current Norseman aircraft airworthy.
My previous comment on the Norseman at Flabob was correct but is now out of date. There were two Norseman being restored by Nord Peterson and his father, but they were both killed in a plane crash at Riverside some years ago and the owners of the planes removed them, to places unknown at present.:(
I occasionally sometimes now and again get Flypast,a magazine a friend of mine,who I’ve not seen for years,used to get and passed onto me one lunch break,but does anyone else read this or have any other recommendations?
Amazing, you make Flypast, our Forum sponsor sound like some niche product only occasionally available during a leap year in the outer islands.
Flypast must be the largest selling publication of its type in the country and is sold all over the world. A must for the dedicated historian although this Forum is a useful conduit for breaking news (and rumours).
Second choice is Propliner, only four times a year, but a goldmine of propeller information and nostalgia, a tribute to the volunteer contributors that each issue surpasses the previous.
And finally Sport Aviation, the official magazine for the EAA which chronicles the trials and tribulations of amateur aircraft builders predominately in the US. When restorers and new builders take up to twenty years to build their dreams, this magazine records their triumphs and heartbreaks.
Last choice would be all Air Britain products, depending on your sphere of interest.
They have been around well over 25 years. I used to raid their skip as a kid, and have great fun with the damaged dummy heads ! Happy days 😀
Any blonde ones?:D
Since when did McDonnell make DC-4’s?:D
You married her, didn’t you check out this foible first!:D
Look at this web site and do a search, there are some unsold, good luck.
Not in Coventry, but well worth a day out, is the book town of Hay on Wye. No self respecting bibliophile should ignore this mecca!
I can give you these choices if you want to take a gamble!

He may have moved or retired or they may be a relative!:confused:
The purpose of the post was to try and ascertain the new reg. if it has one not to discuss the artwork!:D
Good report Steve about VH.
The VT information came from a newspaper reporter in Delhi, so may be correct or an urban myth!
Like VT for India it doesn’t really stand for anything.
Not correct, Post 5 is the official explanation.
Very Hot at the moment!:D
David is right, it stands for ‘Viceroy’s Territory’.
You missed one Mark, the Falklands, VP-F.
India initially wanted to use the prefix BM which stands for Bharat Mata (Mother India) or BH, for Bharat but changed their minds when they realised that the B series were allocated to China. Another option was IU for Indian Union but of course the I’s belong to Italy.:)
