    Didn’t one of the magazines available on the high street have pictures of Skyraiders still in revetments and many engine pods (many still sealed) a few years ago?

    All the best for a safe trip Setter.

    Looking forward to the report on your return.

    Should imagine bits of rubber from the tyres as they take a pounding and eventually they will wear in some form.
    The odd bolt, nut or washer too?

    A large number of those listed by robbelc are still with us…
    Both the Terrier and the Airedale survive. (as a spares source for ASAX and stored following CofA exp respectfully.) And of course the AOP.11 ASCC is still flying.
    The Herald can be found at the City of Norwich Museum…

    Where are those who usually complain about immigrants and people coming here, stealing our jobs, using our services, breathing our air, eating our food, raping our women…? – Nermal

    Can’t see Brittany doing many of them… Only two I can see…. :diablo:

    Yes Bruce – one and the same. Shame to see her scrapped as such a rare beast.

    Now mounted on a mound of earth and sinking slowly last time I saw her… formerly G-RACA.
    Aparently she arrived (by air) fully equipped but look inside her today and she’s been gutted. I have a photo or two but no way of scanning them. May have to be a trip to the parent’s with the album then if interested. I think when I had a nose around her that the props still turned…

    Cheers. I believe I’m the only Brit in the office so they’ll have to like it… The fact I’ve got it has finally sunk in so I’m really looking forward to it now.

    I’m not sure as to the current state of Blue Peter. I know that she tried to thrash herself to death a few years back. An awsome display of the power of a steam locomotive when you saw the damage. The rods were all bent in some wierd angles.

    No complaints from this end… Post away.

    The preserved “Black Prince” is due to be recommissioned some time very soon after a three year restoration at the Gloucester/Warwickshire Railway… Should be easier to photograph and it’ll be nice to see a 9F running – something I’ve never managed to date.

    Quite superb! Thanks for sharing them and pass on the thanks to your wife’s family too!

    Absolutely. I second these thoughts.
