Great history of the Routemaster on Wiki with licence plates for ‘bus anoraks’. They are an endangered species, but can still be seen on the roads of London.
The nose of a Mk. 32 in front of the picture and a Mk. 21 behind.
My memory of ‘FVT tells me that it was a dark blue colour when I saw it at White Waltham, or am I thinking of another one?

Just about the noisiest light aircraft I ever flew in, this one, seen when it was F-BEOB, I believe still exists up at Chirk. Anyone know?
Wicked Willip :diablo:
It may do, but none are currently registered in the U.K.
Addt. info. It was registered G-BEDB and was cancelled in 1991. Wouldn’t have taken much to change that reg!
A single Mars waterbomber will be sent to California to fight the fires that have devestated Southern California these past few days. The Mars will leave Wednesday morning from Sproat Lake on Vancouver Island, it has been directed to the San Diego area where 500,000 people have evacuated to safer areas.
The Mars had a birdstrike on its empennage on its way south and is being checked for damage.:o
Paul, you are quite correct that this is a good arena However, some ‘ contributors’, especially ones who pop up on a first post and then ask a question which seems verging on the inane, and then add a big ironic grin, are difficult to take seriously, and are probably taking the micky out of us, rather than the other way round. It is not terrible thing to do, but it is mischevious, and invites flippant responces.
My thoughts exactly but I didn’t want to extend the discussion further, so we will wait for a response from the initiator but not hold our breath?:)
Perhaps this one…

So looks as though Geoff has his work cut out for the next few weeks catching up with the backload!:D
It is a thirty two year old photo, i.e. non-digital!:D Always thought the engine cowling and probably the front leg were wrong on this aircraft, unlike the French to produce an ugly aircraft, in general terms.
That Mod. is so polite and courteous to the less informed of us!:) Good one Propstrike!:p I wonder if Stephen is old enough to commence a PPL yet but welcome to the Forum.:confused:
the link for the tintagel crash, really does make for a fascinating read, the pilots report really is quite gripping, thanks for sharing that with us newforest 🙂
No prob! That’s what we are here for, education and elucidation. Haven’t even finished reading it myself, it is filed for the rainy or snowy day tomorrow.:)
The ‘EDIT button on the right is for amending or adding to your initial posts!:)
You can start with this accident at Tintagel.

And if you wanted to go as far as Dartmoor, this looks interesting!
He is also selling an Avro Anson seat with the Dakota background!
I love the PIA T7!
Does anybody know what happened to Monarch’s G-MONJ? I flew on her back in May when she was in full FlyMonarch titles!
Many Thanks

thank you thank you thank you for getting it right! I’ve spent all bloody evening searching through every darn airport in the country trying to find any building that looked even remotely similar. :rolleyes:
So now you’ll be better prepared for the next test!:D
Has to be Londonderry – LDY.
Yes it is well done!
I do not believe it is Southampton, therefore it is Humberside!:confused:
