Hi Newforest;
Thank you for the link, but it is Less than useless. More to the point it is extremely aggravating! I tried it at least ten times and every time the tantalizing aircraft photos and text switch after five seconds,to a partial page with just a few annoying advertisements for tee shirts and other junk, with no forward or reverse arrow feature, no website index other than their ads, and no way to click on the actual website with aircraft.
Why do people bother constructing websites that advertising hosts prevent you from seeing?

Hello Tim; I emailed you, yesterday, after coming up with some 900-1,000 negatives of EE Lightnings. (as opposed to Lockheed P-38 Lightnings 😉 )
They are sorted as to F.1 through F.6 and have two additional groupings for prototypes and foreign variants. These negs are ex-Rob Ashworth British aviation photo collection. Would happily trade many or most of these Lightning images for other aero photos negs or memorabilia..As Lightnings are not in my main fields of aviation interest, I’d be hard pressed to say which images are rare or seldom seen etc..

There WAS some sort of German two-seater built a few years back. I can see the thing in my head but I’m damned if I can remember the name of either owner or aircraft.

Frank Ryder springs to mind…?

Halberstadt CL-IV, built by John Eberle. It is still flying today…

I have most of the early runs of Flight, including 1917, and would try to help you with a high res scan. But there is no 19 May, 1917. They published one for 17 May,1917. Which image/diagram do you need? I have a great many duplicate issues of Flight and other titles, from 1909-1940s, or so..(Some loose, some in bound years) that accumulated when I was in the process of completing the runs for various years, if anyone is interested in trading for?

Hello!

I am very interested in these photos of TG 503! Would it be possible to scans or copies?
Best regards,

Hello; I will scan these and send to you. Please check your Private Messages for information on emails.
I have been working on projects with Deutsches Technikmuseum Berlin (formerly Museum fur Werkher und Technik) for about 20 years, I once sent them eight TONS of original WWI German aircraft parts..and some rare engines. Their new aviation building is amazing!

Thanks, TT;
I’m embarrassed to say, I could only think of “Mogambo” the 1953 Clark Gable movie set in Kenya. 😮
But, then, we come here to learn, don’t we?

By the way, I already looked for your photos in my sets of Lockheed Hudson negatives, with no luck for CF-CRM.
(Closest I came was CF-CRG and CF-CRJ)

Here is 503 in 1948, in “Negombo”? The reg.# is clearly readable on the high res from this negative. (Just aft of the open dooor, below the centerline) I have approx 250 Hastings negs, with about 12 of 503. The other negs include two from the 1960s, and a bunch from the 1970s. I also have scanned a neg of 503 from 1967, BCBS, if interested. That one has paint scheme similar to one already posted above of 528.
