That Spitfire kit looks a bit ropey to me, this however looks a bit better, 🙂
This is a bit of a late comment on the subject but i think she looks pretty good. If Red Bull want to spend a chunk of money on her, good on em too, then i guess they would expect to have it painted how they please. Plus its not unauthentic as her active life isnt over so its merely another progression to a different job and a different livery.
Better than her rotting or stuck in some museum as a static exhibit,
if they can paint spitfires red and a catalina with a rainbow then why not. Hurrah for red bull. I for one congratulate them for the sterling support they ahve given to manya ircraft over the years. Didnt they have a B25 in the Red Bull livery also?
Cant wait to see her at coventry.
The Lanc flypast at Haworth was superb 🙂 Fluffy, you arnt the chap who changes the times on the display board by the fence are you? if so, the info on thursday and friday was greatly appreciated 🙂
Is Eyebrook just a resevoir or is a dam also and if so are we in for a derwent style flypast?
best regards , steve
thanks fluffy that is great. I might have ended up there waiting for it to take off on Friday not knowing it had already gone 🙂
will be there tomorrow at 11 🙂
Thanks fluffy, thats of great help, it means i can go see the Lanc depart for Lossiemouth on Friday. Do you know the departure time and arrival time back (unless she is doing an overnight stay at lossie)
Thanks very much 🙂

if the sposorship was for a set period then fair enough, however the censorship of this forum is pathetic.

Snapper what are your experience with use IR film? Problems? Advantages and Disadvantages?
-steve
Thanks Snapper, that was very useful info indeed.
Nice to talk to fellow photographers. Im doing a Photography and Video BA at the moment so thats where my background is (a limited one but its expanding gradually)
As for uprating film , i only used it really as an example but i do find it useful for when i do want high contrast images when you’ve only got a 400asa HP5 film loaded. Im going to give some Fuji 1600 Neopan a try at some point i think.
Ive never worked in a Professional photolab and my knowledge of the systems you use most days comes from one letting me have a run through on the machines showing me how to do it from start to finish 🙂
What do you usually snap on snapper?
Does anyone here use video?
Fair enough snapper, i understand you think what im saying is bollocks but is what i said about 20/30 min photo quality correct or incorrect? At least put me right.
1hour processing to me seems like a fair time of getting good qualtiy pictures…. Enough time to develop the negs, wash and fix. Then Dry them, and then ahve someone scan through them quickly to sort the ND levels beofre printing them with adequate time to let them dry.
20/30 mins leaves little , if any , time for someoene to go though the prints? If i am wrong put me straight on this one as opposed to saying bollocks.
I still think klick are crap though. The staff know little about photography , although thats from personnel experience and im sure there are many exceptions, the print quality is nothing to write home about either.
I dont use Klick much, i did put my money where mouth was, the only time i use them is to save money on shots which arnt important. If i took a film in which id uprated and ask them to take this into consideration do you think they would know what i was on about? Some might i guess but would they alter the settings on thier machine for me.
You dont happen to work for klick do you 😉
“Preservation” Group.
I think they should be called the “lets buy random aeroplanes that take our fancy when we dont actually have any resources to do anything with them” group.
doesnt have the same ring to it i guess though.
Could the Linocln be restored using the Lanc cockpit section….?
what happened to its own nose/cockpit?
