    Hi All,
    Well what better way than to relive the memories you can trundle around your are pretending to load Jags to you hearts content, failing that you could always use to clear parked cars outside your house 😀

    Hi All,

    But I would suggest the Stephenson ladies did. And at that point their feelings were considerably more important than yours.

    Hi All,
    Wow where did that come from ? You want watch that raw nerve sticking out the side of your neck put a plaster on it.
    Mackerel,
    To tell you the truth all I can remember is what I put before you could possibly be correct I just remember the picture the Spit was flat as a pancake and it was alleged that it would fly again ?
    Sopwith,
    The words Nail and Head come to mind, what you have said [Excellent Representation] which is exactly what I was getting at I have mentioned before about continuity and facts being blurred with the truth of what ever the subject if your going to tell the story get it right that’s all.

    Hi All,
    I can’t see what the problem with replacing with more of the same take out of current inventory and replace those from current inventory with new simple. Oh! hang on that would mean actually spending on new aircraft and some common sense being used, these aircraft have proven their worth and BAE in all honesty have profited by the Arrows/RAF/RN continued purchasing and this has lead to the 16 other operators around the world.
    I would go further to say that the Arrows in particular have been a gold mine for BAE with the advertising of their product encouraging other non related products to have been purchased as a direct result and the aircraft should be replaced free of charge or at a vastly reduced cost as a sign of loyalty that the RAF have shown by buying the hawk from BAE.

    Hi All,
    Watched the programme with great interest so just a perfect replica then all said and done ? But you can’t take it away from the team they have done an excellent job, I didn’t like the comment [That’s your fathers aircraft]??? Anybody know what ever happened to the Spitfire that was in Flypast a few years ago ? it was in front of a container and looked like a steam roller had ran over it ? unless Seafuryfan’s pictures are that aircraft to tell you the truth it was the bottom row’s 1st and 3rd pictures that reminded me.
