Thanks for that !
So dump the wife & kids off at North Weald Market next Saturday & across the otherside of the Airfield for me.
Cheers.
Just re-starting this thread, i noticed the two DC4`s / C54`s today, but i was on the other side of the airfield.
Is it easy to access the other side of the field to get some pictures? How do you get on with security etc, and crossing the active runway?
Maybe things are on the move with regard to the restoration ?
I have a very good friend who was involved with its purchase from the US in the 80`s who was asking about its progress.
Anyone know its future or any pictures?
Quite correct Newforest!
Subscribe to that thread – wont be long before she leaves us for good.
Have not herd of one coming back to the UK – Great Idea though.
Here is the tenner reefy one though.
I have seen listings from this seller before, based in Cambridgeshire. He imports Russian Military equipment, usually 4 wheel drive vehicles, and the odd SAM launcher! He was featured on the Local TV News a few months back.
I not sure if all the items are currently in the UK though.
Blimey I was only having a Giraffe ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
Same buyer ? ( thats a wild guess! ) ๐ฎ
Yes well done Bruce
Ellis Faye – Nice name too, I have a daughter Faye, with an “E” of course

Great to see further Carvair interest from across the Atlantic Patrick! ๐
It seems a dreadful shame that so much work has been put into the manuscript that you have, with no interest from publishers. Had you tried any publishers in the UK & the rest of Europe. I know the type still has a following in Belgium & Germany, both of which were served from the UK in the 1970`s.
I noticed that a German Company is offering a recently released model in the later BAF liveryโฆ.
Do you happen to have a picture of the Halesworth Cockpit ?
Kartman has asked me for one but I cannot find the file anywhere on my PC ! ( Sorry Martin โ Still Looking )
Last time I saw this aircraft it was intact at Southend as CF-EPV.

Gladly pass on the info as my plans have changed.
But i cant get the “send email” function to work on your username, or anyone else come to that, must be something wrong with the site. Martin for some reason i cant send you a PM instead, whereas i can for other members?????
Have you tried to buy it in the past David ? I asked back in June, and a third party said that the owners would be more than willing to part with it.
Great idea Colin i`m for that too.
There was a rumour that Carvair Nose CF-EPV up in Norfolk somewhere, can be purchased for a price, not sure if thats still the case?
