i watched a piece of aluminum get turned into a p39 main spar at Murray Griffiths work shop in wangarratta by a similar machine a few years back,absolutely incredible to watch in action.
i traveled there from Australia last year and i can only echo the comments of mr smith,i saw 7spitfire’s in flight(i’d only seen 2 before that and not at once)’3 buchon’s several mustang’s 3 seafuries,3 skyraider’s the list goes on…till i got to england i’d never even seen a thunderbolt or p38 :eek:.
i suppose if it is there all the time you take it for granted,gentlemen even with the loss of d-bbd/a68-192 it is a great event you should look up and realize these events wont go on if we rubbish them,my first warbird show down here had a few tigermoth’s(gotta love tiger’s)a ryan stm and one mustang.
i’m sure the event will be brilliant!!! i’m so jealous of you guy’s doing this event and also goodwood festival of speed.,hope to get back over there in the next couple of years.
‘enjoy the sight’s and sounds!!!!!!!!!!!!
i only have seen one episode of ice pilots but even from that i could tell he was a brilliant pilot(even more in awe after watching the video above).
word fail how i feel….another great one gone.
Could fill the houses of parliament with the soil,makes more sense than that lot of overpaid liars.
now where is the like button…………………….:dev2:
or use all the politicians as land fill to level out the earth after all the buriad planes are dug out….
the best one yet(hope it’s true)ronnie would never lie would he :dev2:
yep thats the one(in both case’s)i’m just glad i got to see it
damn that was hell of a guess!!!
Bristol fighter?
congrats inkworm
the pressie that keeps on giving(or should that be taking……….)
great shot’s guy’s (and girl!!)i have only seen then once(so far) and they were incredible.
so here’s my shots from goodwood festival of speed


i also discovered the tread a bit late..
this forum did alter the way(well very slightly the wife had more influence:dev2:)the places i visited on my holiday to the uk..though i did meet a couple of forum members(beermat and mk12 plus the other writer of “the book”(and had it signed)i also spent time at the redlion pub that i would never of heard of if it hadn’t been for this place.
i’m hoping to get back over there in around 3 years so i do hope to meet more members and visit more places from these pages(i don’t care what the wife says i’m visiting firebex and the whirlwind project!!!!)
oz jag as you dont live far from me i must visit you as well.:D
and the last one withdrawn from civil service in 1993!!!
seems a very late date and none preserved
[QUOTE=paulmcmillan;1830063]The roundal police won’t be happy with that.
why not it’s obviously a raaf spitfire :diablo:…but will it be at………………:diablo:
happy birthday mark12
could there be another tf1 wyvern in this whole as well as a s4?
i must admit i’d love to see a s4 displayed sometime in the future!!
this anson was airworthy in Australia till at least the mid 80’s possibly later(as vh-baf)
and even masqueraded as the Boeing 247 in the mini series about the 1934 London to Melbourne air race.
