tight fit over the bridge!! you get any of the ‘tonka’ stuck in the mud? Will let you know when fuel tanks get fitted.

Thanks for posting those Merlin.

I don’t suppose anybdy knows how long she’ll be accesable for photos, I heard she was going to be towed back onto the airfield when complete?

I may be able to get there in early Feb if she is still aound.

If she does, let me know when your’e around & I’ll get you on airfield.

Cheers Merlin,

Hopefully be over myself tomorrow/Sunday to update my photo collection of the Valiant .

just to let you know, at sometime in the morning, the RAF are moving some Tornado’s & Jag’s accross from tech school, so you might see them on the airfield on-route to hanger 2.

What’s your interest in him?
His main T-33 that wore the Black Knight scheme is now in it’s original Canadian markings airworthy at Duxford, his number 2 T-33 is currently under restoration to fly. The CF=100 is at Duxford, going to be hung from the rafters of the Airspace, the Sea Fury was wrecked & parts were incorporated in the Reno racer Furias.

I’m a keen model maker & tempted to do his black T33. plus I remember his a/c at various shows many a year ago.
