    Time for wozza’s input.

    Number of engines, approx size etc!

    It had two engines and was of relatively large size for a biplane – so at a guess a DH Rapide, however the airplane I had little detail on was the size and make-up of the Tiger Moth,

    Wozza was it two bi-planes?

    Oh sorry – I missed your previous post, there was not two aircraft, however 10-15 mins later another vintage looking aircraft passed, I could not see in enough detail to determine any significant detail, so possibly.

    Tried speeding up to surpress the flames (physics folk will know why 😉 ) – however this resulted in the malfunction of the recently changed E4, thus incurring a shut-down of the engine (not sure if you can see that in this shot)

    You’ll be glad to know all passengers evacuated safely and the aircraft is undergoing intensive maintenence + checks whilst investigative authroities inspect the damaged engine,

    Isn;t there a bunch of Tiger Moth’s somewhere down in your rather bizzare world that you call “South” 😀

    Come to think of it – it did look like a Tiger Moth.

    Who said the south was bizarre – its just unique, special…run-down, crime-ridden,

    EDIT – Another peculiarity I noticed:

    – 1 in 2 people was a copper
    – A police helicopter spent the afternoon flying in circles, is this normal, and if so a humungous waste of police resources and tax payers money.

    tada!

    If I remember rightly it was discussed on here that turboprops do still go into Heathrow from time to time?

    Biplane into Heathrow? About as doubtful as doubtful comes to be honest!

    Well it was a bi-plane and it did a circuit above the area of approach and headed off in the same direction others were approaching in, I assure you it was a bi-plane!!! It does sound far-fetched but it was!

    And I am willing to give in, it did come to mind it could of been the Malaysian at the time, the red at the front is identical so it most likely was,

    Thanks for all the replys – all that footie – I need a cuppa :p

    Some nice shots here!

    I’ve just come home from a 5 day spell in hospital with Glandular Fever, so some FS’ing will be needed to cheer me up this week!

    erm, ouch, hope you are feeling better and looking forward to the inevitably stunning screenies

    Yes it is possible, although they show up as different planes that you don’t have installed.

    Do you have to do anything special?

    Me and Future Pilot attempted it earlier and were unsuccessful 🙁

    The Aurigny billboard scheme really does suit the Trislander.

    Not entirely on subject, however I remember reading in Airliner World that Rockhopper had a Trislander re-built, have any more undergone such treatmeant as I would like to see this, would mean more Trislanders flying for longer,

    The subject of other people’s use of English is off-topic for this Forum. Let’s have no more nit-picking.

    GA

    If I can make this one, neccessary, non-civil aviation, exception I would be grateful.

    Pay heed to GAs reminder, I honestly believed that informing GA of someone’s grammar and post subjects who was really winding me up would have no effect what so ever, however this simple PM that took a mere ten seconds to create resulted in punishment to the offender. Therefore forget moaning in the open forum, as the reminder says, and send off a PM – the results are clear to see in a matter of hours,
