ahh, I see XM692, well XN299, is a complete aircraft, so i would not have room or money for that, as for XJ758, i never realised she May be up for disposal ??
Merkle
firstly i must apologise it has taken so long for a reply..ive been without the internet for a few months
Regarding the Whirlybird “iron Chicken”, if i remember correctly it has now been assigned to the Royal marines for restoration?
Scott
Chris, any ideas on the status of the “Iron Chicken” down at Tangmere? i know there were talks rumoured up at NEAM between our ex manager…we spoke to one guy when we were there at the BAPC meeting early this year i think it was…..maybe Tangmere1940 can shed some light??
Scott
it was the ever greens, thanks for the help, now for the second question…does anyone have any information/images of WL181 in her display team livery?
unfortunatly not, i was having a conversation with a fellow NEAM member today and we were discussing our meat box, to which he stated it had flown with a display team called the green….. i cant remember the second part of the name, the box we have is rumoured to have been Ray Hanna’s old airframe, does this help any?
hmm, the one im looking for had green in the title….i cant remember what it is though
she did indeed…where were you Mr Moore? we could of done with you at neam..you missed some very good looking visitors…including 558 :p
dude..the guy just wants an aircraft to restore…whats the big deal with everyone giving him a hard time over his choices..the canberra cockpit for example..now i dont know much about previous merkle bashings but i do recall some of the previous ones….why cant we all just get along and support one another in the choices each of us makes??
Hi Scott.
A StrikeMaster eh? cheers for that.
Never managed to shoot much of the lighter stuff, any lights landing,came off the runway too far away too shoot.
Thanks.
it was on a trailer mate, came up by road from NEAM
Scotty..i believe its a BAC Strike master..although i could be wrong
did u happen to get a photo of an Auster on the static displays??
my life is almost complete….i saw her fly low over NEAM today and i was speechless….im just jelous of the crew
Thankyou to them though…it was spectacular
absolutly awesome sight john…it was in fact chris who emailed the crew at least 7 times in the last 48 hours lol
and the roumour mill’s latest is that the cane is sitting under an XL 737 as there was no storage space for it..it had some sort of fault?
