    I don’t know about the others but I most certainly would love to see more.

    Yes PL – the Gressley one off was 60700. Somewhere at M&D’s there are some copies of prints of some steam and the W1 (IIRC) is in there. I will see what I can borrow.

    Pete 70048 was shedded at Willesden 1A as at October 1963.

    Thought I’d chuck a couple more in. These are scans (except river picture [No.3]) so not super (and quite dated).

    Gary, you perv ! :diablo: …

    Guilty as charged – oh you mean about Twiglets.. 😀

    How on earth can you enjoy those tooth-breaking, indigestion causing packs (or tins) of nastiness ???

    That’s TWO of you keeping this awful product in business – Shame on you :rolleyes:

    I never said I [u]brought[/u] the things (and no I don’t steal them instead) – I just said I like them…

    Dave I’m with you the smell is enough to turn me. My ex-wife likes Marmite as do my kids (I think. I never have the stuff in the house so I can’t remember if they do or not).

    Horrid stuff. Satan’s own food!!! 😀 😀 😀

    Looks like the ability to add one has been removed… Never mind.

    Hinton-in-the-Hedges do operate side by side (as BR mentioned) although they have had some incidences in the not so distant past when gliders and parachutists have been in the same place in the sky at the same time.

    Like a lot of things if operated properly there should be no reason why it couldn’t work.

    The worst problem you will have to overcome is the locals and the noise from the paradrop plane and air-tow planes (if utilised).

    Ok so DX have said they can’t in what they hoped. These things happen. I’ve been on an airfield and spent ages putting stuff in and out in order to get it to fit – it happens. With regard to the comments with regard to positioning – ironic considering the thread a bit further down about transverse laoding of aircrft into hangars and the use of skates. A lot of the re-organisation of Hendon involved aircraft on skates so not an impossibility for DX surely?

    No one seems to think of the people that expended time and effort restoring these aircraft, how are the people who worked on the aircraft to go inside, that now are appearing to be going outside again feeling about such news?

    Thanks 92fis for starting an interesting thread, just a shame it has been skewed.

    Berlin Express
    Another B&W film. An interesting film with loads of footage of the shattered immediate post war Frankfurt. A German peacemaker who wants to reuinite Germany with all powers getting on is kidnapper and his secretary and four passengers from the train they were on (oddly enough a Russian, an American, a Frenchman and a Brit) all have to get on in order to find the missing German. A good film (although I missed a couple of chunks of it) and gave an interesting view on the destruction, mistrust and rebuilding required immediately post war.
