    Lets not forget the Messerschmitt & Heinkel micro cars of the 50s.

    You have just transported me back 35 yrs!!! I remember my fave book was a Ladybird Book of Cars. Remember the pages full of the cars you mentioned and stuff like Bond 3 wheelers and the ultra cool Renault Dauphin!!!!

    Rubbish; we all know Fluffy spends ages hunched over the nav’s table, cutting fresh sarnies and passing them around. It’s all a bit like that famous clip of the fat kid eating on the rollercoaster on Jim’ll Fix It, but he means well, bless him.

    I will never be able to visit Coningsby again!!!

    Can some one explain to me who the “Stanford Tucks” are please?

    An elite group of spitfire pilots maybe?:confused:

    Hurricanes i think from memory??? Plenty of peeps with more knowledge than me so I’ll shut up as I’m as mad as a box of frogs. :p

    Fluffy- only if you promise to wear a frilly apron and push it up and down the fuselage serving cakes while in flight, okay mate? 😀

    Just to emphasise, it was only produced for a 3 minute period for the Vickers Halifax and how is Fluffy going to get the trolley over the main spar to the pilots anyway? Thats why Lancs did not use them. For Gods sake get real man!! Anyway, the Roundel’s size are far more important than the Fondue Set and for your information the only Lancaster social gathering equipment was a Gas Powered Paella unit first used in ’44. so there :p

    Lancaster Fondue set???? I don’t think so my friend!!!! I think you’ve been ripped off there. They were only produced during a 3 month period SOLELY for use on the Handley Page Beaufighter! :rolleyes:

    I think it may be genuine. Not too long ago I bought an original painting of the Red Arrows when they flew Hawker Hinds. I was suspicous at first but when he told me he was a WW1 veteran, I trusted him and then he sold me a genuine Sidewinder Missile that was originally fitted to the night fighter version of the Lancaster
