& this is one of the best Phantom photos EVER…

Here’s a pic of her dad….

” Arena”???
How about a bit closer to home. Read a book some time ago that mentioned a couple of *secret* airfields in Albania used to launch strikes into Greece against the Germans.. Gladiators & Wellingtons were mentioned…
I’m the exact opposite. I’ve fiddled about with about 20 or more P51’s. I’d be hard pressed to tell you the N # of more than 2 of them…
Sometimes it involves shenanigans to avoid the IRS…. & that’s all I’m saying about that 😉
That *whimper* from the bloke who parachuted into the tree was epic 🙂

I saw another funny fail for 2011, but unfortunately no video. I was at a trackday at Silverstone and there is a sighting lap at the start, 25 to 30mph, and the red lights come up on the intermediate group (not slow nor n00bs) signalling that someone has managed to stack it.
We run a pool when we do track days here. The idea is to pick the session, lap, corner & type of bike.
….& it’s almost ALWAYS, 1st session, 1st lap with some muppet on cold tires… R1’s & Ducatis at turn #3 or #5 tend to feature heavily…

The bigger risk is all the ack ack junk coming down in an air raid; as noted.
I would have thought the actual bombs would be the biggest risk 😉
I think until you can get 3/4 scale crew for your 75% scale replica, there will always be some compromises in scaling and proportions.
I can think of someone who fits the bill… 😉
and where did all the fins go in the cockpit shots!
Little known Flying Wing variant 😉
:diablo:
Believe me, ZRX61 is anything but a ‘Colonial cousin’! 😀
erm.. thanks.. I think? 🙂
Your probably right but I can count at least 9 people in that pic:D
I see at least 19….
It’s amazing the lengths that TFC go to to wind up this forum, isn’t it?
LOL!! 😉
