The best piece of equipment in any inventory, is the one that’s used extremely regularly, is entirely transparent and therefore forgotten. Yet provides the most essential service.

But it isn’t half missed if it suddenly goes awol or breaks.

Now where did I hide my broadband router???

My guess is that it has become so much a part of the furniture, they forgot about it when they did the website.

Why cant i see anything…..?:confused:

There could be 100 reasons for this.

What sort of Internet connection do you have? Broadband or dial up. Dialup means they might be slow uploading.

Maybe Photobucket (the image hosts) were off-line while you looked?

Maybe you have images turned off in your browser.

etc…. ad nauseum.

chopper litterally choped up ???????????????????

😀 The power of a 10x zoom. It was actually in the next field, I was in a layby nearby. Doing some Chinese!

I’m sure it has been mentioned previously, but weren’t some WWII, near end of life, bombers packed full of explosives and remotely guided to their targets, with varying success, by the RAF and the US airforce?

Surely they would qualify as guided weapons?

As they were used as weapons, surely they were “operational” too, even though they were experimental.

Very nice indeed.

Especially liked the B2 shots, Fairford seems to be the only place it appears in the UK.

Love the way that both of the Red Arrows opposing pair are in focus. We usually only see one in photos of this nature.

I can’t speak for Steven Fry, or the new film’s director, but if I were either I’d neatly sidestep the issue by not mentioned either Gibby’s dog or the code word at all (or smoking, come to that).

I’m sure there are a lot more important facts. tales and tears to be shed in this story.

Steven will, no doubt, get a great deal of laughs by highlighting the somewhat public school style “debagging” imposed on other squadron’s aircrew by the “resting” 617 crews.

Those are great, but if I may be so bold as to suggest you try and keep them to less than 800 pixels wide on the forum. You can always provide a link to a larger version, if you wish. Simply embed the IMG tag within an URL tag to the larger version:-

Like this: –

[UR L=”http://www.robantnets.co.uk/coppermine/albums/2007/Yeovilton%206%20Jul%…“][IM G]http://www.robantnets.co.uk/coppermine/albums/2007/Yeovilton%206%20Jul%…[/IM G][/UR L]

You can do it by clicking on the IMG icon, then highlight the code the IMG icon provides, then click on the world with a link and supply the url for the full sized version. It is a self hosting way of creating thumbnails.

Click on the image below to see how it turns it into a larger version if you click on it (hope this works – not looking for an eggy face), both images are hosted on my webspace:-
