i think there was a museum at Earls Colne that displayed parts of the B26 at some point, i think the museum is now closed?
I would love to see a B-26, the 394th Bomb Group operated B-26s from Boreham (Chelmsford) which isnt far from me. There seemed to be alot of bomber groups that used B-26s in Essex?
robbo u just beat me to posting that, 🙂
To be honest i would rather prefer to see a airworthy Napier Sabre go into a Tempest!
Is the replica going to be made in the UK or the USA?
i would of liked them to do a series on the British paratroopers in WW2, didnt Stephen E Ambrose do a book on PEGASUS BRIDGE?
It would be good to see another series, Band of Brothers has to be the best TV series ever!
i thought there was 2 catalinas at NW, 1 was sold to The Fighter Factory in the US, the other one is the orange example?
Well done Snapper the picture looks superb!!! now that puts my photoshop skills to shame!
is this an april fools joke? i got caught out last year with the Typhoon -mossie swop!
🙂
isnt that the catalina being restored in holland, by that neptune group?
the fighter collection also have a P-40B TOMAHAWK 41-13297 — TFC C/O CWHA, Torrance (E-U ) this is currently under restoration.
I think the CURTISS-WRIGHT HISTORICAL ASSOC is restoring the P-36 for the TFC. The wings have been sent to Pioneer Aero in NZ.
is it that the hawk 75 had a fixed undercarriage?
Curtiss Hawk 75? what is the difference between a hawk 75 and a P-36?
does anyone know if kermit weeks keeps the sunderland in ground running order? or is completely grounded?
i just wish someone would bring the sunderland back, the first step was the Gannet 😉
isnt there “supposed” to be a He111 being restored to fly in Austria?
didnt the IWM do something similar with the Shuttleworth Sea hurricane?
it would be great if another a private owner at Duxford would Half own the Casa 2.111. The IWM would have the aircraft based at Duxford and would get advertisement if the aircraft displayed at airshows. (advertisement i meant a small logo like what sally B had with Flypast, not like the red bull aircraft!)
its such a shame the plane came all the way, and now its static 🙁 🙁
