If I could name only one favourite band of all time: Pink Floyd

Favourite album: X&Y by Coldplay….

I have a 3G in WN890 (this seat is a rareity as it actually saved a life of a Hunter pilot over Wales), 2H in WT648, 3G in XG290. XF113 has a Javelin (Mk3 IIRC) waiting in the wings. I also have a Folland Gnat seat, which will probably move on as I do not have a use for it (i.e. no Gnat cockpit anymore).

Rocketeer – did i ever tell you about the story of finding 12 boxed brand new Shack yokes in a lock up in London about 2 years ago…..actually we thought they were Lanc at the time…….! Still, ebay is a wonderful thing…none left and actually they are quite different (our plans for retirement soon turned to dust when we found out they werent Lanc 🙁

TT

nice story!!!!

Sorry, I meant recasting the buttons themselves if you have access to another example of the same grip?

I have some recast buttons somewhere and could be persuaded to make some.
The top button is often broken by the trigger being flipped up by the index finger and allowed to bang into the top button!

In an Apache, the pilot is in the back, and the gunner in the front. There is no dual control system. (If you talk about the ugly green eggbeater alse referred to as AH-64)

Not wholly true….

The Apache pilot sits in the back, the CPG sits in the front CPG= co pilot gunner, there are controls in the front (extendable cyclic)….helicopters are cool….don’t knock em until you tried them!

Beautiful, now somewhere gather up all the Master bits and add one of these beautiful aircraft to the collection

Its such a shame that the compilers of “Spitfire 70” made so many mistakes with their Survivors List.

Never mind … Graham Trant and I will have the new edition of “Spitfire Survivors” out in a few months time.

looking forward to that, please give my regards to Graham
