    Does she indeed, i looked at their online store, and it seemed quite limited, does she have access to a wider range? (is there a shed somewhere round the back of Airfix that has all the old ones they couldn’t shift!? that would be a great place if it existed)

    Can’t find anywhere online that has an airfix Victor, so i reckon the Revell one might be the only one currently available.

    Anyhow, best save that sort of thing for when the sun goes back in, got airshows and fishing to do while it’s not raining..

    she does…its goes along the lines of…tell her what you want…she’ll order it in and let u know when its there she has contacts see πŸ™‚

    im currently sitting at home listening to the sound of hawks practicing for the airshow…phil K from NEAM works in sunderland city centre and has a view of the whole coast..im not happy πŸ™

    Hi Rob, i believe those subjects u just mentioned above are under headings such as principles of flight and propulsion, the cadets also do airmanship, its taught differently on each squadron but the exam is the same for everyone, they give a good explination into how an aircraft flies, from being aerodynamic to how the engine works and what the wings do πŸ™‚

    hi 668, im currently a Sgt in the atc, well…for a month till i turn 20, anyway, some of the engineering stuff we have at the squadron are along the lines of engines from cars/boats aswell as the DeHaviland Gnome we have accross the way at NEAM.

    at the moment my cadets are doing a few different basic engineering projects, building a go cart, one of those little 4 wheeled buggies with a sail on it, beach racers i think it is, oh and they have just built a tardis :confused:

    the engine we use to demonstrate propulsion is a little 4 stroke on a trolley i believe, easy to move about and it also has covers that come off which allows for better instruction,

    hope this helps and if you would like photos i can get you some as im there tonight πŸ™‚

    Hangar 3 Update

    Sorry for the late posting, ive been without the internet so couldnt get access, just a quick update from a few weeks ago

    as we had several members on site and willing to help out, we decided it best to re arrange a few things while we had the chance, unfortunatly we chose to do it on a day when the weather turned against us, absolutly chucking it down with rain, we pushed on and managed to achieve our goal of moving a few of our exhibits which had stood outside for a few days, to be put under cover once again….

    Image 1:

    Avro Anson C.19 TX213/G-AWRS has been turned round so she now faces the public, this was done by moving Pucara A-522 out of the hangar and with a lot of pushing and pulling manouvered into place

    Image 2:
    Westland Widgeon G-APTW has been pushed back so that she fits next to the Anson, allowing room for the Dragonfly WG724 and Sycamore WA577 to be brought over from Hangar 2

    the other images are just extra’s that i took during the day,
