Brilliant,
The people who usually moan about Duxford are the people who have moved up from places like London to a village next to an active airfield then all they do is bloody moan about planes flying. I wonder if thease same people when they are in their charter holliday jets climbing out above the houses etc at places like Luton and Gatwick etc think about the noise they are helping create for the people under the flight path. Probably not.
I wonder if the same people would moan about duxford if German tanks wer coming up the M11 No again probably not

People on here obiously don’t realise what is entailed in looking after a fleet of TFCs’ size and all that goes into getting a show like Legends on it’s own for the public to come and watch. Why oh Why don’t we stop moaning about fightline positions and aircraft not flying or staying in the hangar and applaud the volunteers etc whithout who the pilots would have nothing to fly in. I mean it’s allways the pilots who get the praise and hardly ever a mention for the volunteers who give freely of their spare time.!!!!!!!!!
Well said Steve,
I doubt, in fact I know the aircraft were not over the crowd at legends as if they were the airshow comittee and CAA monitor would have red carded the offending pilot.
I noticed on the Sunday at the side of the 505 there were some sickos with ultra long lenses pointing at the area of the crash site, now that was sick. also I wonder how many sickos were trying to see if they could see the crash site from the crowd line with the super long lenses.
Ant Harrington I suggest you get your eyesight tested, and if you enjoy going to airshows then innaccurate posts like yours could only harm the movement.
I doubt if anyone of you know the slightst thing about WOGB and the Arnold family, but I suppose that someone will fill me in on the details, I mean it would be nice to know:) 🙂 🙂 🙂
ageorge. in answer to your question no I’m not a previous user under a different name. I have also settled for a glass of strong Cider allthough it was a toss up between Cider, Bridge or the Two bottles of Glenfiddich.
Heres to a wee dram or two or three and so on allthough if I am really spoilt for choice then it would be one of Sam Smiths , John Smiths, Tetleys. Websters Pennine or Theakstons old Peculiar
Cheers
Ageorge,
Just out of intrest where have I said that I wasn’t a new member or have I misunderstood your post. I am at the moment debating wether or not to have some of my last Bridge of Orchy ( probably spelt wrong) can’t be bothred to check.
Bentwing bomber myself and droptank are not the same person if you don’t believe me have the IPS adresses checked.:p
Damien could you please state the instances of the insults then I can see if I am guilty:confused:
Mark V I could not have put it better myself and if I might add so eloquently put.:D 😀 😀 😀
Cheers Mark V I will try it as soon as I can find the piccie for Nielly
Droptank steady on old boy we all like plenty of curves up front specially at Legends if the sun is out:D 😀 😀 😀
” Displaying together one day ” I thought they did every day
Snapper,
Now you have got me confused “direct line through to TFC” enlighten me on this please do.
I would rather watch Kings lynn or that Old Trafford shower than watch West Ham, no on second thoughts I,ll chop my arm off or join the Sally B supporters club.:D:D 😀 😀
Damien B yes as you put it every board gets them it’s a fact of life and no Digby and droptank are two different people. If we seem abrasive then thats your problem it’s probably because we don’t conform to the ideas of the old boys of this forum and have our own veiws on matters shame really as I thought people had a right to an opinion, abrasive or not.
Also snapper why dont we put shackles through your mainspar and hag you from the rafters.
Damien you said about abrasive comments and people then what about putting a Tf51 mustang on a poll or shackles through its’ mainspar as Snapper sugested, his opinion no doubt but could be construed as abrasive I rest my case I could go on and troll through other peoples posts and get some more but I can’t be
a—d I also think the newer members have livened this rather dull assuming board up somewhat:D 😀 😀 😀
