    Great shots 🙂
    I love the Bronco / Tucano formation 😀

    The show was very good, a lot better than the line up suggested it would be. the day being made better by not watching everything through a camera. The usual stars shone for me, Vulcan and Team Viper.

    geedee, thank you for showing me around the Mustang and answering all my questions, that you must have had to answer again a hundred times 🙂 Especially seeing as though I thought you were Rocketeer for the first half of the conversation 😀

    We will also be back next year. We will have a lot more models and members on the stand next time. We are currently discussing some ideas and themes ready to start work for next year.

    Scott from what I was told, one was serving the other not. The SA80 were plastic but quite nice.

    My point exactly 🙂
    The inconsistencies caused by multiple Goverments / Nations with in the UN etc. are the lesser of two evils.

    On Libya, I would like to know the real reason for the regime change.
    Its not on humanitarian grounds because that just does not happen in the real world. I t is not enough reason to act in other countries (helicopter gunships used on civilians in Syria, on the news a few days ago).
    I dont think it is oil either. We already had some good deals going on there. And lets be honest its a lot easier to do business with a dictator than multiple warring `tribes`.

    In my opinion the Middle East is just going through its `awakening period` , something we did centuries ago.
