Vol 1/2/3/4 Fighters (I have these)
Vol 5 Flying Boats (and this)
Vol 6 Float Planes (never seen)

Never could throw them old mags out.:D
Yes we did. I remember there been much better imagery than used on this wiki page though.
Hotol.

The figure I heard was £140.000, but that was last year, he might have had a pay rise since then:diablo: but I must stress it was only hearsay.
A few from me.



My current “toilet book”:D is Parallel Worlds by Michio Kaku.
Hawker Typhoon armed to the teeth with rockets, because I hate trains:diablo:

Re 335
Are you by chance, related to Bruggen 130 ?
My oxometer is in the red zone.
Are you by any chance out on day release? It would account for the garbage we all have to put up with from you,
who give a sh!t what zone your in.

He seems to want all the advantages without any pain,
I think we should go to plan B, give them totally independence then as they are trying to sort out the resulting mess, INVADE, take over the Country lock stock and haggis, close the assembly and throw Salmond in the Tower :p
We could have a rematch at Drummossie moor Culloden:rolleyes:
Well If Scotland is to keep all the oil revenue, then it’s only fair that they pay the lions share of the national dept, which is how many billions or is it trillions?
Incredible logic.
If England wanted independence, could Scotland keep London? If we take on our share in the national debt, then it follows that we take our share of the national assets, too!
But that’s what your after is it not? Planes, ships and any thing else you think your entitled to. that incredible logic you dismiss was debated in a live tv commons meeting on Tuesday, I think your all in for
a big shock if it’s a yes vote.:highly_amused:
Fleming stumbled on to Penicillin by accident,
Robert Watson-Watt is given the credit for inventing the radar. The first experimentations into what we would define as radar came in 1888 when Heinrich Hertz discovered that radio waves could be bounced off objects. In 1904, Christian Hulsmeyer patented an early warning system for shipping. Therefore, Watson- Watt did have prior research to inspire him.
Baird’s system was a dead end and only lasted a few months, the true inventor of TV as we know it today was if I’m correct the American Philo Farnsworth.
I’m sure it was Marconi or Reginald Fessenden who are given the credit for Radio.
There are a lot of myths out there, Dagurreotype for the camera, Galileo for the telescope.

How do you know this? you wont be the only country that ended up in anarchy after independence, lets hope that if it’s a no vote the politicians that voted yes will get the same treatment that you want for
the ones that voted no to independence.
