I will do just that. I thought of getting hold of a cessna 152 or something of that sort and install the radio gear and engine from my spitfire into it. I haven’t flown 4 channel since I was about 7…….it’s always been 2 channel 😀 😀 😀 Mark 😀

I have Microsoft Flight Simulator 1998 (as well as Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 1 & 2) at home……….I was extremely proud of myself yesterday when I managed to take an Extra 300 under tower bridge………inverted and at over 200 Knots 😀 😀 😀 That made my day 😀 😀 😀

The local police here have actually stated that they have lost control of the YOBS in this town………I HATE YOBS!!!!!!!!

In my opinion they should be put up against a wall and shot!!!!!!!!!! Put them out of my misery 😀 😀 😀 Mark 😀

I fear this will lead to more violence

It probably will, but it could go the other way and deter many other “would be” Saddams from doing the same as he did (although I have my doubts as to whether this would be the case).

I think that if they are going to hang him, they should at least wait 20-30 years (for example) and let him suffer a bit before hand. I think that would serve as more of a deterrant.

My 1000th post (again!!!!!!!!) 😀 😀 😀

If YOU wanna have a TV-babble thread,start one up and see what happens.I,for one,will contribute 😉

And me!!!!

Although this isn’t the last movie I’ve seen…….I think it deserves a mention.

The Battle of Britain – Starring Michael Caine.

One of the best war films I’ve ever seen (and not just because it has a lot of scenes with Spitfires in them).

Am I right in guessing that models were used in the “crash” scenes (for example, when several of the HE111 bombers went into the drink)??????? I don’t know this for a fact, I’m just guessing 😀 😀 😀

Also, the German fighters disguised as hurricanes made for rather entertaining formation flying scenes 😀 😀 😀 😀

But again, just like most other (if not all other), war films………an absolute classic!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mark 😀 😀 😀

The Fast and the Furious – Tokyo Drift

I have to admit that the first two fast and furious films didn’t really appeal to me that much……what I mean is that I wouldn’t have gone to the cinema to watch them by choice (although I did watch one, can’t remember which though).

I also have to admit that, after seeing this one, I take it all back. This film had me on the edge of my seat all the way through. The storyline was fantastic, the camera shots were fantastic, it was all fantastic. I really enjoyed it!!!!!!

Mark 😀 😀 😀

😀 😀 😀 LMAO 😀 Well I never. I wonder what it would be like if you had given them a grid reference 😀 😀 😀

Flight of the Black Angel (1991)

Not the same front cover as I have but the same movie.

It’s about a phycologically disturbed renegade pilot in the US Air Force who, after slaughtering his whole family, arms his aircraft with a live nuclear weapon and sets off for Las Vegas on some sort of “avenging angel mission”.

His commanding officer Col Matt Ryan, however, has other ideas and sets out after him to shoot him out of the sky.

It’s a movie that I enjoy very much and one of those free from modern day computer simulations etc………what you see is what you get but, in my opinion better than Top Gun which is full of the typical millitary competiveness (if you get what I mean).

Not only that but people die in all sorts of ways in this film………some are shot down, others are just shot 😀 😀 😀 It adds a bit of variety to the storyline instead of endless aircraft exploding in mid air.

It did take me a while to get into but not as long as with a similar movie “Final Mission” (which I will explain later), but all in all, a very entertaining and some what addictive film 😀 😀 😀 Mark 😀

I want to know why it has taken them this long to decided what to do with him.

Still, at least now we know.
