    Great pics as per usual guys!

    Speaking of corsairs, the la ferte alais example can’t be far away now?

    Gotta say, that was bloody superb Andy

    Have they commissioned a second series? If not they should just on the evidence of that episode.

    I could think of a dig in Burma that could make an interesting documentary….

    Cheers Peter.

    The report I read was completely different from the one highlighted.

    Not that it matters, as the important thing is the airframe appears as good as hopes for in an instance such as this, and more importantly the pilot appears unscathed.

    Let’s hope it’s a relatively quick fix and it’s back in the air this summer.

    I remember many years ago reading a book of his about his exploits in Greece. Any idea what it is called? A really good read.

    Let’s hope that don’t send the engine away to the same people as the uk based example! That’s been awaiting its engine for about 5 years!

    Good luck to them!

    D-fwjs was for sale last I heard.

    Nice to see the air fighter academy have bought the ex-jacquard example. Will make a fine addition to the fleet.

    Effing brilliant!!!!

    I wonder how many people will assume certain attendees just by the short video clip?

    All I want is no wind, 30 degrees slight cloud and a beautiful day. Let’s hope the weather gods know its moved forward a couple of weeks!

    Oh, and a 3 ship horsemen routine!

    I believe the team remain positive that in a few years they may get her airworthy again, finances permitting. There is of course the small matter of the length of the LFA runway as well?
