Sounds fairly near the mark, does anybody who went to the HFL tour know if their Irish T.9 will be back in action by then, or will its Merlin still be recieving some TLC elsewhere?

Or surely the Red Arrows replacement, formation runway cleaning with a flight of time expired harriers (the two wingmen are hidden in the mist)… 😮

Bump…

Back to the thread especially for people who like to guess their christmas presents 😀 , usual disclaimer of ‘if you don’t want to see what’s turning up, look away now’ 😉

(PS. see thread on the lack of a Lancaster for the latest press release, this thread got me thinking again…)

So.. things are beginning to get interesting, we know there is no Lancaster, but with two B17s there is nothing to complain about! It looks like the Airacobra should fly if everything goes to plan, but the TFC Hawk is probably a little more long term, but progressing nicely. Apparently there will be eleven spitfires, does that mean any new ones? The suggestion of up to 60 aircraft including many newcomers sounds good to me, but still no news on the Fighter Collection website, any new rumours out there?

I heard (in UK) that the Reds are thinking of re-equiping with the TYPHOON after it goes into gen Squadron use????

I like that idea, a nice bit of ‘if you can’t beat em’, join em’ thinking 😀 😀

Absolutely superb, the Pacific colour scheme really looks the business as well, cant wait to see it 😀

According to ‘Wrecks and Relics- the Album’ the halifax was perched as if sitting on a nosewheel, with a strange rather home made looking single tail fin, as a device to test radio devices for airliners in the late 50s. It was pretty much a gutted shell, and soon into the 60s the nose was saved and the rest scrapped. I think it was at Radlett, I will check in the book later….

I enjoyed the alternative view, cheers JDK, I have never ventured to the far side of the road at Duxford, how much of this area is open on normal or airshow days?

PS.. A chiz is a swiz or a swindle as any fool kno :p :p

On Sunday I was walking along the top of the Malvern hills and there was a Herc circling around (quite a way away), it was followed by what loked like a smaller, similarly shaped twin engined thing. (showing the depth of my modern transport airraft knowledge here 😀 😀 )

Could theis have been one of these Transalls as well :confused:

(PS… I know, I should have been at Duxford…. I will be there for Legends 😎 )

I would have thought Tangmere would be a particularly good place, they seem to have a good relationship with the RAF museum, they already give a good home to a famous Hunter and a Swift, the Midland Air Museum would also make sense, one of the later mark Spitfires would give their earlier jets a nice context: showing the state of the art just before the Meteor, Vampire etc.. (but then I am slightly biased in the last comment 😀 )

did you get any close ups of the Skyraiders or Gannets? (Or anthing else bizarre looking with an arrestor hook?)

Cheers.. Will

Very nice selection of suff, cheers. PS No worries, by close ups I didnt mean much other than, well just pictures!! It takes me back to the good old days of the Cornwall Aero Park, before Flambards, rollercoasters, general lack of aircraft :rolleyes: Does anybody know what the future holds for the old Helston Skyraider parked in bits outside? It would be great to see a Royal Navy AEW Skyraider in the air, there are quite a few dotted around the world as they were then used an Sweden as target tugs, much like the Firefiles that have appeared at Duxford.
