Hi All,
Wow! This certainly has come out of the blue a very underrated artist in IMPO. He produced some classic pieces of aviation artwork I have a couple and one I always wanted is the image below titled Low Flying Mosquito and one of his best IMPO.

Hi All,
Daz – Interesting little article and another book on my to read list. It never ceases to amaze me when you think that the call to arms brought so many together from the commonwealth in particular Canada. He was obviously a hero and deserves to be recognised for his endeavours for our today.
RIP Mr Hilton and thank you for your service.

Hi All,
Consul – Many thanks for that I have tried several times but to no avail on their owners and identities so could only make assumptions one possibly being Pink Lady, it did cross my mind about SB but was unsure of her arrival date, again many thanks for the info.

Hi All,
Just wondering if anybody else ever gets stuck reading a educational book ? I seem to have gotten a third of the way through The History Scotland and just cannot for the life of me get back into it (Nearly 6 months :o)
I love reading but this one has just made me hit the brakes for some reason and every time I try just a few pages more then it’s put down again.

Hi All,
Trolly Aux – Many thanks I enjoyed the video as it was a good update on the Don Bradshaw 109 video that was featured in a post of mine a while back. I did notice there was a certain moustacheiowed mechanic who was supposed to have retired helping out MR SALTER….;)
Unless that video was shot before like so many of Kermit’s that feature on his Facebook page every now and then ?…..:eek:

Hi All,
Minesweeper 1943 (Via Talking Pictures channel/SKY 328) A flag waving US B&W film that is a bit dull IMHO, none the less if your into any old war film then this will be right up your alley just don’t expect to much from it…..;)
Starring:- Richard Arlen as Richard Houston,Jean Parker,Russell Hayden,Guinn “Big Boy” Williams,Emma Dunn,Charles D. Brown,Frank Fenton,Chick Chandler,
Douglas Fowley,Billy Nelson,Grant Withers and Jon Gilbreath.
The film is a fictional account of a former navy deserter who returns to duty after the attack on Pearl Harbour, under an assumed name as a sailor aboard a minesweeper in World War II.

Hi All,
Agree the sound must be terrific….:)

Hi All,
A Shot In The Dark 1964 (Via Talking Pictures Channel/Sky 328) Classic very funny Peter Sellers comedy in the film that started the series based on the original 1963 Pink Panther film Clouseau character which are all good fun to watch still to this day IMHPO. After Peter’s death the others lost that vital comic ingredient IMO yet they still produced more. You can search Youtube for the panther outtake’s one of the funniest has to be the lift scene where one of the cast farts (intentionally) and all are corpesing …:D
Starring:- Peter Sellers,Elke Sommer,George Sanders,Herbert Lom,Tracy Reed,Graham Stark,Moira Redmond,Vanda Godsell,Maurice Kaufmann,Ann Lynn,
David Lodge ,André Maranne,Martin Benson,Burt Kwouk,Reginald Beckwith,Douglas Wilmer,Bryan Forbes,André Charrise,Howard Greene,John Herrington Jack Melford, Victor Baring,Victor Beaumont,Tutte Lemkow,Hurtado De Cordoba Ballet,Fred Hugh,Rose Hill and the Tahitian Dance Group. corpse
A chambermaid at the Ballon residence in Paris is accused of murdering her lover. Against the wishes of Chief Inspector Dreyfuss, the infamous Clouseau is assigned to the case. Death follows the maid wherever she goes, yet Clouseau is stubbornly convinced of her innocence.

Hi All,
EB – I would think the best way of finding where the premises they are currently using would be to either contact the BPA via their web site below (Link) or to contact http://www.kbobm.org directly ? The only thing I could find in relation to the current status where older posts with no updated info other than the BPA web page under construction so I would assume that the BPA are currently still active but in a location that is obviously just temporary ?
Here is the above mentioned web page:- http://boultonpaulaircraft.co.uk/home/
