Also a FW190 in the wrong markings, the serial to this appears to be ?N999.

Historic has had its moments, however since a former moderator self moderated himself and has not returned it has improved somewhat. Not quite to what it was 18 months to two years ago, but it has improved.
Sometimes it pays to get your gripes out in the open, however in the case of the “World v said Moderator”, no amount of constructive criticism, either openly or by PM, seemed to do the trick.
In the end it was the unbiased reaction of a third party that administered the coup de grace to this moderator as a result of his (the moderator’s) unfounded public accusations.
Unfortunately things may not have got this far had the administrators of this forum taken heed of what was being consistently said to them by many of the forumites. It cost the forum dearly in a number of worth while contributors who left and have not returned.
Even now the request to be able to re-appoint moderators on an annual basis has not been granted or even reconsidered. After all they, the moderators, where put in place by popular vote of the forumites, it should be possible to remove them by the same means.
I thought November was the target? August seems a bit far fetched, as does November.MJR
They were interviewed on TV here in Jersey last September, then, they were quoted as saying the aircraft would be in the air in time for the 2006 Jersey Airshow on September 7th.
Having just shot a load of photos with my d50 in Raw and then realised i dont have the software to convert raws i am a bit stuck.
Does anyone know of any free software that will convert it, i already have on my machine Picasa, Paint shop pro 7 and picture project. Will any of them do it?
Correct me if I’m wrong, Canon supply software with their camera’s to convert RAW to JPEG or similar?
So surely Nikon would supply the same with their cameras, in which case why would you be needing software to down load any pictures taken in RAW if, in theory, the relevant software was already supplied with the camera.
If it wasn’t, then shouldn’t you be jumping up and down at the person who supplied you with the camera ? Or maybe take time out to read the instruction manual. Or would that be too obvious ?
Starlings dont have distinctive sticking up fins, unless my bird knowledge is totaly down the drain.
It must be, because the Lesser Spotted Shark Finned Starling of El Salvador does have a very distinctive fin on it’s back.
Thats not Ultravox (no Midge Ure and his little pointed sideburns).
John Foxx fronted Ultravox before Ure, Foxx left in 1979. It isn’t them anyhow.
If we make a substantial donation to your campaign, can you guarantee a peerage for us ????

Yep they do !!!
What is this charity called? I can’t find a Concord Return to Flight or similar on the Charity Commissions website, odd ????

As long as it doesn’t get in the way of ‘ITTR 2006’ I don’t give a sh*t what they do.
A.
I think the two projects are at different ends of the charitable spectrum. Personally the raising of the funds for ITTR 2006 by charitable donation is more likely to happen than Concord returning to the air.
Where are you going to get the millions you need?
That’s not an unreasonable question.Andy
Maybe they have a core membership of Lesbian, Albanian, Scouser, Fox Hunting, New Labour supports, in which case the National Lottery will rush to their aid.
Thanks Alex, no problem
One question someone maybe able to answer, the below is a photo of Woodwards medals, left to right DFC, 1939-45 Star, Air Crew Europe Star (With Atlantic Clasp) and War Medal.

I’m not up to speed on medals and their various attachments, the Atlantic Clasp has me puzzled also the lack of something similar to signify his involvement in the Battle of Britain with 600 Sqn.
What was the Atlantic clasp awarded for ? And how would I go about finding out about his eligibility for the BoB clasp ?
Thanks Nial and Paul, your help is appreciated.
Woodward’s letters have been something of an eye opener and have revealed that things weren’t all sweetness and light between the Sqn CO and his Flight Commanders during Woodward’s tenure. There was certainly a clash of personalities, mixed in with a possible element of class difference, age difference and maybe north south divide.
