If there’s one thing I remember from enforced RE at school, is that the Swastika comes from Hinduism and that the “wheel” went the other way.

Hippy barthday Mr T 😀

There was the odd one or two Bulldogs frames that were kicking around next to the shed. I think DS acquired it all through the MoD disposal process.

There has been some activity on the Spit rep but it seems that has progressed nay further. You could offer to put it back together and display at MAM though I bet you will say there are 1001 more jobs to do first! 🙂

Quite possibly given Bombardier laid off the Shorts staff. But do we really need UK plc giving jobs to the boys again? I suppose its down to if the MoD need any mods done (hoho) to meet the training requirements.

Do we go Swiss, American or Brazilian?

AIUI there’s crated Viper engines sitting around at a reasonble price that can be fitted to the JP should a replacement be necessary. Can the same be said for the Garrett-powered Shorts Tucano? In fact, are the engines made anymore?

Well done Consul, indeed it was! Super little advert that, lots of low formation flying.
