Update, 01/05/11
I love the pic of NM doing the Chicken Dance after sliding down the flap! 😀
As has already been said, Sunday was a day of ‘aircraft chess’ rather than engineering. I got across at lunchtime, and Lindy and the Nimrod were already out on the airfield, Lindy on the V-bomber QRA pad just where she should be!
We got stuck in helping to move the museum’s aircraft out of the way for next weekend’s shenanigans. Hunter was first to be shifted
Note a lame duck leaning on the wing for support 😉
Next was the Canberra, after Rich and I had wrestled a very reluctant towbar into place
Lindy looks on from her pad
It appears we have an experimental version of the Canberra, with experimental ‘super-flaps’! 😀
Next out was the Herald, here being piloted by Brian and the trusty tractor
All out, the museum chaps put the fence back after the Nimrod was fuelled. What can’t be seen are members of the Victor crew waiting with buckets, in case of any leaks, so we can fuel our girl…
The aircraft will be out there until next Monday, once the Battlegroup North doings next weekend are done, so there’ll be no update as such next weekend.
Is the hint at me Blue 2 :rolleyes::)
We could still be on for a Friday delivery, just got to go pick something up from Nottingham first 🙂
And here is the finished kit Benyboy delivered me. Finally done!
