Hi All,
Why thank Strat….:eagerness: Could the Jaguar have been upgraded at all or had it reached the end of it’s service life considering India kept theirs flying ? I am thinking in terms of Engines/Avionics or was it merely a bean counter decision with the likes of Typhoon and Voyager having to be paid for ?

Cant’ get enough of Lancaster porn…………:D

Hi ALL,
I watched a supposed Sci-Fi/Drama last night via (Sky Cinema), the film is called ‘The Quiet Hour’ relies more on the ability of the young cast rather than all the CGI bells and whistles that accompany most Sci-Fi- genre these days. I was hoping for a good low budget British film but it fails to deliver miserably and only recommend if you have watched everything (Sky Cinema) has to offer sadly, still this is my opinion and as always down to personal taste…….:sleeping:

Starring:-Dakota Blue Richards,Karl Davies(Robert No.2.-Emerdale)Jack McMullen,Jack McMullen,Brigitte Millar,James Browne,Liam O’Brien,Zeb Moore
Paul Flanagan

Humans are few and far between since Earth was invaded by unseen extraterrestrial machines that harvest the planet’s natural resources and relentlessly kill its inhabitants. In a remote part of the countryside, where starved humans have become as dangerous as the alien machines hovering in the sky, a feisty 19 year old girl, Sarah Connolly, sets out on a desperate attempt to fight back a group of bandits and defend her parents’ farm, their remaining livestock, and the solar panels that keep them safe from extraterrestrials. If she doesn’t succeed, she will lose her only source of food and shelter; but if she resists, she and her helpless blind sibling will be killed. And if the mysterious intruder dressed like a soldier who claims he can help them turns out to be a liar, then the enemy may already be in the house.

Hi All,
Whether your a fan of any project no matter what it’s someone’s dream whether that comes off is another question ? Dream big and start small ? At least
these people who dare try are putting their money where their mouths are. I would say one of the easiest way to get involved if only in a minor way with
any project is buy some merchandise.

After all I have said it before on the forum without these visionaries who put the money were their mouths are we would not be witnessing flying
restorations let alone walking around the statics at museums I would say they need all the help they can get no matter how small….:eagerness:

Hi All,
I watched via (Sky Cinema) ‘The Man From Uncle’ a very underrated film IMHO, I thought and has it’s really funny moments along with some good action.
