Hi
curiosity is getting me.:confused:
i always thought the early IX’s were converted Mk Vb & c.
so as these aircraft being converted already have the b or c wing,
when converted to IX, would they not be a b or c wing MK IX,:confused:
or did the conversion to IX include standardising the wings as well.
cheers

We give India, and recently did, give India 16.000.000. and have been doing so for seemingly ages. Their President stated that they didn’t want or need it, but we still gave it to them. Apparently we are tied into giving them this until 2015.

Hi
Well if they didn’t want it, there is nothing stopping them giving it back to a UK charity or something.

Hi
If we stop spending, we get what we have now recession.
Maybe it is the start of the end of capitalism and it will fall just like communism in the 80’s.
I find it is both interesting and scary at the moment, as all the world events unfold,it is a long time since i have been this unsure of the future.:eek:
Soon the babyboomers will stop spending as they will have most of what they need.
all the problems that this will bring to the world economy, for about 10 20 yrs in my opinion
cheers
Jerry
