Well i had a cracking day and have a sore neck and face from the sunburn! i must of drank about 20 litres of fluid to stop myself dropping to the floor. High light of the day was of course the Buccaneer runs. Together with the opportunity to get a pic of 894 and 900 together. And just think soon there will be three Buccs there.
Of course its good to see all of the resident aircraft stretching there legs and setting a few hundred car alarms off and i quite enjoyed the radio controlled aircraft. Especially the C17 and the comet as i’ve never seen them fly before. I didnt have time to get to the rv point as was helping prepare 900 for her first run. Oh well theres always next time !
Now .. of to search for that lead .
dont think its a Bucc, looks like a sea harrier to me ……..
Thanks wm, i tried that it says it isnt. i have just spent all day reinstalling everything and also found some trojan horses on my system, so i’m hoping that when i try it tomorrow it will be ok
i have seen it on the uninstall list, and i dont wanna go down the format route if i can help it. Unfortunatly i only have an OEM version of windows so Microsoft won’t help me And my man in the know isnt sure of the ramifications of uninstalling it.
What about using a pick axe to split a step outside my house, and swung it into my leg ? I can tell you it really hurts. But, if you do it properly it doesnt pierce the skin and just leaves a nasty dent and makes you hop around a bit shouting obscenities. ( i have nice nieghbours, they understood!)
But to add further insult i did it again an hour later to the other leg and now have two circular marks half way up my shins !!!
cant remember seeing three wessex’s the other week when i went past………
Andrewman- anybody working on the Bucc? Got any pics of the Vulcan interior ?
guess thats means it was the constellation then. Went to Lockheed and triple vetical stabilizers ………………..
Oh well i’m going this weekend for a practice as well, pics on monday if i can get them to upload this time……………..
after a night spent humouring my ex boss at a ex colleuges leaving do that was a welcome laugh , sheer muppetry ,well done ! For an encore you could light a fart ……………………………………………..
Andrewman , i live 20mins from there and will have to pass by so if you want a lift pm me, its no problem. Are you local ?
I have a wingman attack 2 at the end of its usefulll life is ok as long as you dont turn right …………………………..

Porbably leaving myself wide open here but. Would have to argue, and point out that a unladen Victor, with four engines at max power surely is a lot heavier and noisier than a harrier with all the external stores it could possibly carry in the hover. Or any other mode of flight come to that. Just my opinion ……………… go on somebody prove me wrong ……………………
very good especially the Dillta one………. anymore ?
