B17

what he doesnt know is that he is going for a flight the look on his face should be interesting.

would you please keep us posted when it happens – that’s a lovely thing to do 🙂

If North Weald was built on, where would all the cool stuff based there go?

Biggin perhaps?

but what if it went down performing a routine or in transit?

If we all thought “what if” all the time, we’d be too scared to leave the house.

Flying is safe – don’t be afraid! 😉

I’m off to Chicago to see and photograph the example there in April, I’ll post some pics up here.

I’ve also got some pictures of the example displayed at Speyer (substantial recovered wreckage) which I’ll scan in and post here later this evening, if anyone’s interested.

I have a pic of that one at home – it’s in good condition but has a bit of a hole in the underside – like combat damage. Shame it and the Spit are hanging up, but al in all a very good museum! 😀

Went again yesterday for the umpteen millionth time – enjoyed it as much as ever, always something new to see, i.e. concorde/vulcan outside, new mossie colours, TSR2 ‘naked’! Alain de Cadanet’s MkXVI spit, a chippy doing aerobatics when the sun came out…

I didn’t feel short changed at all.

Sure Hangar1 was empty – but it’s a temporary situation and the work will result in something truly spectacular…

More power to you Duxford – you can have my £12 any time 🙂

ps… I’d go just for the smell in the TFC hangar! 😉

“I’ll hit the brakes and he’ll fly right by” 😀
