Why thank you Paul….:eagerness:

Hi All,
DaveF68,
Cheers matey! To my mind the RAFM could help so many other projects that have possibly stalled for lack of certain items, the RAFM will never see through to the end restorations of what they have accumulated over the years. The vast amount of hidden gems tucked away at various sites I dare say in an ideal world where money is no object they could chug on with one restoration after another but they keep hold of these artefacts like a stockpile of nuts kept by squirrels.
The copious amount of artefacts that would so benefit other restorations by them donating even dare I say selling to these projects IMO would create a pool of money to restore more relevant aircraft or artefacts that are scarcer than rocking horse do-do that should be on show. What do you think ?
Geoff.
Hi All,
I’ll raise you two jaguars…….:D

Hi All,

Hi All,
Cebro,
Many thanks for that video.:eagerness: Here’s the stupid question of the day here, could that Halifax have been restored to flight if the money was available at the time or is that a fantasy question ? My own opinion is that W1048 would have been better preserved in a fully restored state rather than how she is at the moment, having said that was the money available at the time ? and did this influence the RAF Museums final derision on what state she should be in ?…….:confused:

Hi All,
Can’t we all just wait till it’s all done and dusted and we know the final word on the matter ? I concur with j_ja80 & Bruce POSTS 644/45….

Hi All,
Isn’t it more a point along the lines of the teaching of Radicalism that needs to be addressed ? If these young people are so alienated by western culture then why do they have so many western culture traits ? They drink/Smoke/Have sex with different partners including having gay sex/Wear western clothes and footwear, The latest phones and the paraphernalia that comes with them,Web sites,Media tools,Carry western style bags on their shoulders,Drive western cars,Clubbing ,Movies etc.etc. the list could go on.
It’s the teachers of radicalism that need to be curbed within their own religion, if like has happened the moderate Muslims do no nothing then radicalism will spread further and further like a virus. The problem is that nobody has a cure from the western world it needs a host to develop the cure like an antibiotic that will stop the virus in it’s tracks, you could bomb these radicals until then end of time and they will still be radical in their thoughts and this is what needs to be altered but I fear that the moderates are bolting the stable door to late as the horse bolted weeks ago……:eek:

Hi All,
Have noticed this for a while and this forum is not the only one or web site have you tried EBay ? god it takes an eternity to click from one page to the next these days, could the problem be that as more people have easier access to the net through more devices that increases the traffic, thus is what has slowed the net as a whole down in particular on popular sites such as EBay and chat forums ?

Hi All,
War Book – A thought provoking film based on actual civilian War exercises that take place. Filmed more or less with the same cast taking place in a single room, not everybody’s cup of tea, no special effects/Action etc. just a little Drama. Available on BBCi download service but for how long ?……;)
