I was fortunate enough to see TFC’s new Hurricane fly on the Friday before the show,and for those of you that missed it she looked absolutely stunning :p a great credit to all at Hawker Restorations and TFC,well done guys and keep up the good work.
I didn’t even realise TFC had any volunteers
I’ll think your find the Hellcat is in France with Albert
Oh i see,sounds a bit political lets hope things get a move on pretty soon because it’s going to be an awesome sight when the old girl is finished 😀
Are they waiting on parts???????
Yes it would be nice if someone could track down Mr lees so he could give us a time frame for the Sea Fury.The air-frame looks almost done with some great work from Mr Lees,always a pleasure to view his craftsmanship.I wonder if he could throw some light on the engine? is it being done in house? or by an outside company?
I must say as well that i have seen grayfly performing in a Piper Cub some time ago which was pretty awesome,Maverick eat your heart out 😀
Just been to the HAC web-site to see if there was any info on this Howard Cook bloke and apparently he is responsible for marketing and promotions as well as ground crewing.The pilots for this year are Charlie Brown,Rod Dean and Alan Wade so i guess Mr Cook has had his wings clipped.
Who is this warbird pilot called Howard Cook that eveyone is talking about? is he new to the warbird scene? The name doesn’t ring a bell,i thought Charlie Brown done all the flying with HAC.
I 🙂 have had a go at contacting him through that address,but he is always out in his field driving his tractor.I might try and get up there one weekend so i can track him down,thanks for the info.
Grayfly when is the next edition of that fantastic log due out? any ideas? i wish they would issue one a month because i’m sure there is so much to write about,plus it would keep people up to
date with all the coming and goings.Perhaps you could tell me how i could get in touch with the editor because i always seem to find quite a few spelling mistakes in his log,so i thought i would offer my services as a proof reader,just an idea.
Now that’s what i call from the horses mouth:D
I think that would be a good way to go to be honest,rather that than not see her fly at all,not sure if a certain volunteer would appreciate that though :p
Thanks for the pic Robbo,hasn’t changed from when i saw her in Feb still a lot of work to go yet,can’t see her making legends although i hope i’m wrong
I saw the old girl in Feb and it still looks a long way off,couldn’t see any sign of the power plant either.Talking of power plants for Furys any news on the Navy’s??????
