blue….come and see it!

NEAM are restoring their Link Trainer (C3 varient or similar). Were there any standard colour schemes used by the RAF for this type of Link? Same with the map table – were they purpose built tables, natural wood or painted?

Does anyone have a good colour picture that they would be able to post?

I’ve tried Googling them and only get USAF ones, or a single while RAF one. We have nothing in the archives of any use for this exhibit.

Thanks in advance. (as always)

send it to me old chap…..pm sent

Hi Chaps,

My chances of getting to Hendon now look slim, but I am teh current custodian of the Flypast Historic Aviation Forum Disposable camera (See seperate thread for more info), and no-one has volunteered to take it off my hands.

Hendon would seem a good place to fire off a couple more shots on the camera (if not finish the film as there seems to be a distinct lack of enthusiasm for the project from the forum as a whole?).

If anyone is interested in taking the camera to Hendon, and using it there, either to finish it off, or to take a couple of pics before passing it on to one of the others attending, can you please PM me with your address and I’ll get the thing posted to you ahead of the forum get together.

Cheers

BUMP!

Any takers? Come on gents and ladies, don’t be shy…. Who wants to add a photo to the selection on the camera? No previous experience required, 🙂 just a subject with a suitably “Historic Aviation” connection……..any interpretation of that subject welcome…….

PM me with your address and I will arrange to post the camera on to you once I’ve taken my picture. There are about twelve shots just waiting to be taken…

I know it’s getting dark early in the evenings, and it’s cold out there, and we’re all busy Christmas shopping, but surely someone out there can find something suitable to capture on film……

Roll up, roll up…

Send it to one of the guys on the Forum meet on 1st Dec and we can do a few?
