    Also RAF Millom Museum, a small but interesting museum, and i believe there is going to be a small museum at Walnet Airfield in the not to distant future. The first exhibit is a Tornado which should arrive in March.

    That should of read ‘cut open a corpse, live on tv’. I was thinking of ofering my services as i’m not too bad at drawing, but having missed the first one of the series i’ve found out about ‘Dennis’ the nude male and have since gone off the idea. lol

    As long as they get it back in the air, thats the main thing, and although it wont be in an authentic scheme at least Red Bull aircraft always look good, like the Sea Vixen.

    I know the C-45 Expediter/ Beech 18 formerly known as ‘Southern Comfort’ went to Ireland (not sure which part), but apparently the owner underestimated the amont of work needed on it. Proplover might know more info?

    Oh and I reckon there was a touch of irony about the original F-16 question.

    Agreed, but you have got to play along, it’s part of the fun :rolleyes:

    F-16’s at Cosford, i might be wrong but never usually, a couple of years ago they had a Mirage 2000. F-16’s also at Sunderland usually both Dutch and Belgian and sometimes one at Eastbourne. The Elvington F-16 last year was the first time one attended their so no guarentees for this year.
