Ah, sorry about that, wife rang to update me and commented on the lack of IT eqpt. in the office! (and quoted current food and hygiene regs!) Look forward to watching it this w/e. I remember being on approach to Cambridge in a pa 28 and being overtaken by Suckling -those were the days!

Ironically there is a mini estate of prefabs at the back of the Ciba Geigy plant at Duxford, also some two storey in Sawston, wonder if the museum realised all that when they acquired theirs?

There is no secret. Details and pictures of the new rad core are in the latest edition of Friends of TFC Fighter Log magazine, in the post to members this week…………

The art deco building featured in the film is the present reception building at Marshalls airport. A feature on the make over for the filming was in the Cambridge Evening News and one of the monthlies at the time it was filmed.

Its why I posted it was Marshalls originally. :confused:

Not all at Duxford.

Tower = Marshalls, Cambridge

I’d forgotten about the Lovejoy episode.

Well Lovejoy is being repeated on itv 4 at 6:55 pm thursdays so you can have an opportunity to find out then

The autumn, not summer edition of the Friends of the Fighter Collection newsletter Fighter Log will as per tradition carry details of all aircraft, owners and pilots, best bet join the club!

In a funny old way I guess that buying a new engine for the Hawk , flying it and two people to fit it from the States, Replacement heads for a Merlin, New Piston , (and gudgeon pin) for P47, canopy bits for mk 14 isn’t that cheap. I guess that in some way we all helped with that effort by buying tickets didn’t we?
