So nice to see Viima out and about and the Fury replica. One day I will make the trip over to hopefully see the Viima up close.
ATB and thanks for sharing the shots

Drove past BB on Saturday and there was the tail of a JetRanger (blue and white)sticking out of the hangar next to the M61. No idea as to which one but it is obviously still used…
I was thinking perhaps an AVIA aircraft – as I thought the shame was reminiscent of Avia FL.3 G-AGFT although obviously with greater glazing area….
Is this actually a flying model?
No type readily springs to mind but have you considered the possibility that it may not be a German aircraft per say but rather one from an occupied country in German markings?

I’d say Vimy Commercial too. The angle gives the impression of single engine but it is twin. It is hard to see it clearly but a piece of history none the less… thanks for sharing.
Oh the K-xxx series weren’t military they were the first civil registrations in the UK up until 1923 IIRC
All the belated best Daz.
Hope it was a good one!

PU-597
Any news as to how she (G-ASEA) is progressing?
The Croughton aircraft are real aircraft. (despite what the Americans say)
I like the fact that during the intro they said the RE.8 was one of 200 suvivors…!
Sorry – I should have put captions…
The wings were from a Venom. The engine IIRC was under the blue tarp and the rest was in the hangar and awkward to photo so I didn’t as I couldn’t get a decent clear shot adn there was no-one to ask if I could go in an take one.
