Hi All,
Well Done!
Excellent progress and a fitting tribute to all those who crammed themselves in these mechanical shrouds for hours at a time. Yourself in particular and other’s alike who devote unselfishly they’re time and energy into these projects are to be admired IMHO. You are all just important as those who do the same with the Warbirds we all love to see and hear flying, Thank You! :- )
On the subject of your last post regarding the start of your turret project, I had a dig on tinterweb and found your old post. Even though I searched on the Key Aero internal search like you stated I could not come up with anything. (Link below)

Hi All,
Jim Davidson said the other day he decided to watch The Dam Busters film and they have overdubbed Digger instead of the Dogs true name Nigger I just don’t get all this whitewashing of history,
How on earth are Children/Young Adults even Adults in general meant to learn the true version/events as regards history if they are actually learning a false narrative ?
I served as a cook at Scampton and the RAF Police/Dog Handlers had mentioned sometimes a black dog had been observed outside the gates or wondering around the entrance every now and then.

Hi All,
Two RN Wildcat helicopters flying Nth/Nth East over my house (L/Spa) 13:00 approx. Very odd this as it is exactly seven days since I last observed a pair of RN Wildcats around similar times and both days a Thursday ?
This time I was able to check on flightradar24 not a trace ? Anybody know if there is a way of acquiring more info on these flights and what’s with the none registers ? From my vantage point they where heading toward Coventry(Baginton) Airport but even so once landed don’t they still transmit position ?
Geoff.
