Bloody gorgeous mate.
It might be vermillion, but I’m green.

He was.
Here’s his brother, Spider. Well chilled out. Posted this before but what the heck.
Hope this works.
This is Sweep, who lost his life 18 months ago demonstrating that cats have no road sense.
Still miss the little blighter.
Gave it to Ageorge.
Last I heard it was in Ireland!
Ian.
Theres other folks out here keeping our heads down until less contentious business appears. It’ll pass.
I can relate to Dave’s story about the bloke with his Cub.
My first R/C plane was a Cub and I hated the thing. It was incredibly sensitive in pitch and dreadful to try and do co-ordinated turns with.
It landed upside down in trees, cartwheeled across the strip,nosedived to the ground,. and every time I took it away muttering, bringing it back the next week,repaired. Eventually it did the wooden cluster bomb thing. Built a brand new fuselage and gave it away after that.
Wonder what the locals called it before he came along?
Scott. Thanks for your fine hospitality, your beer and your wonderful collection of emoticons (should really keep that quiet before Anna sees them).
You are a gentleman.
Regards; and nice to seeyou here.

Whats an reblublicanic?
Good photos Peter.
Thanks for posting them.
There’s a good serialisation in the Mail at the moment as well.
That panther on the side looks pretty neat!
Come on guys.Its not worth getting personal over.
The Scottish contingent had a close look at her earlier this year, and there was a photo posted on this forum of us lot standing in front. She’s looking slightly rough around the edges, but MOF have done a bit of maintenance on the paintwork over the years.At past open days it was sometimes possible to get inside, and the cockpit looked intact to my untrained eyes .On our visit, KeithMac gave us a very full talk on the various systems, and an explanation of what all the various hatches and bumps were for. He’s better qualified than most to give a more educated appraisal of her condition.
Its good to hear she’s going to get some attention. Any more details Peter?
