I’d give the entire casting a work over with glassbead blasting & just hit the corroded parts of the gear doors with the same. 🙂

Last year at this time there were numerous complaints about the Chabberwocky. Either TFC choose to ignore them, or they don’t read the threads about their own airshow..

For me the show lacked drama and has done since the twin engines fighters disappeared, the Mosquito to that dreadful crash and the Tigercat to the US.

Here ya go then, this was taken on Friday 😉

At a warbird show like Legends,after a brief introduction to a display, the participants should be allowed to fly ‘the routine’ without commentary, so we can hear the amazing sounds of these historic aircraft…but then I’m biased as I’m also trying to record them.

& just put the pertinent info about the aircraft in the program..

It was improved also on the occasions when the tannoy (repeatedly) broke down and we got a moments peace from the tediously incessant witterings of Bernard Chabbert. It was quite amusing that people cheered when it broke, and jeered when it came back.

Repeatedly? So did the proles make good on their offers to use dikes to silence his wittering?

I guess the Campaign to Abolish Aviation have at least given the TFC crew time to catch up (if needed) on any maint issues:)

Yup, Pleming needs to go.

Is it the same carb as a Spit Merlin etc? Fuel feed valve on the fritz?

NickB, I think you may be disappointed again this FL weekend with the reenactors getting in shot.
A long stick with a nail in may help?

I say we add a bit more realism & shoot the ******s.:D:cool:
