Look at it now – superficially if you like – complete with female ‘facilitators’ with voluminous skirts and dangling earings.

I’m too young to understand this stereotype. I thought the big moral dilemma of the ’80s was women beginning to wear trousers in the workplace? When were ‘voluminous skirts’ a source of contention?

A weirdo with a cache of weapons living in isolation in a remote farm house… and he didn’t have a cockpit collection?

One month on and the question still stands. That guy must have a Lightning cockpit under a tarp somewhere.

I take solace in the notion that were Trump to become president he would be impeded from doing a lot of things by Congress. If the US end up with Trump as Prez then they ultimately will have wound up with the leader they deserve.

Got to admit I didn’t read it…

Do I detect a whiff of irony, given the subject matter at hand? :applause:

Sounds like fantasy land to me, rather like the threads where extinct types are discussed.

Given that we are already there, could there be an argument made for the CAA to relax their attitude towards ‘experimental’ types? XH558 is, already, a much modified aircraft. Why not stick modern engines in there? If they can engineer modern Ford Mustangs to make the same guttural roar of the originals then surely you can make XH558 howl using modern, efficient and manufacturer-supported engines?

That is my flight of fancy for this thread. :very_drunk:

My point, which you seem to have ignored for one reason or another, is that he could have done his beloved Children in Need work for free.

Is there a similar painting of a tearful Pudsy Bear handing Wogan his cheque for £9,065 after his seven hours work presenting Children in Need in 2005; a year in which he netted £800k? :confused:

What on earth is the matter with some of you people ? Isn’t it sufficient to note that a light has gone out and most of us feel somewhat poorer for that ?

Sort of ironic coming from someone whose opinion usually comes from somewhere to the right of Genghis Khan. :rolleyes:
