    What comes to my mind reading all of the posts is the story (parable?) of the old bull and the young bull in a field……:)

    Hi Martin
    Try your local industrial paint suppliers as a first stop………

    Astleys, they moved from Far Gosford Street – to Binley I think. They’ll be in the ‘phone book. They always used to be very helpful.

    Not only great pieces of artwork but a historical record, particularly during the war, of component suppliers mostly now long gone and forgotten.

    Blackburn Firebrand by the looks of it.

    Cheers,

    That’s what I thought too. Is that the old terminal at Elmdon in the background?

    Interesting to see something “different”

    An area we (or rather I) seem to know little about.

    I was going to ask how of the Taurus many were built – do I take it the answer is 12?

    I’ve got an allied dilemma this weekend.
    Taking an aged uncle to Weston-s-Mare on Saturday (for a family event on Sunday) then dashing to Yeovilton – I probably won’t get there till about 1.30. This will only leave the afternoon to look around the FAAM (I do dawdle).
    Option 1 Sat night B&B near Yeovilton and get another hour at FAAM on Sunday morning before dashing back to Weston (for 12.30) or
    Option 2 go back to Weston Sat night and have a couple of hours at the Helicopter Museum Sunday morning?
    hummm..

    Shouldn’t the 21st edition be out now/soon?
