Here they are for you Arm Waver (and also for all you other guys

The office:
Thanks Dave.
The photos are moving. But as they are part of history, it is sometimes necessary to be reminded to those few. We should learn from the history.
To those who made the ultimate sacrifice.
I am sorry to tell you that there will be no display by TFL in the UK this year. Also this season could be the last for the team in its current shape as some of there aircraft have departed during the last months.

And now one other plane of TFL which left the group at the end of 2003. This was their Boeing B75 Stearman OO-STM. It now flies with a new owner in Germany:
And to close the other plane of Glenn Lacey during may 2003. Fw 44 OO-JKT (now G-STIG). It is seen here at a local show to celebrate the 15th anniversary of TFL at EBKT.

I think it is still early to tell that.
I still took some other shots and I have some time so I might as well post them too:

I am lucky. I have a great mother. She prepares a superb cold salad with numerous ingredients. Its always a suprise to see what she has prepared for me. A good meal is always nice! No dougnuts for me!;)
Now I do want to thank my mother for all the nice suprises during dinertime at the airshows: THANKS mom!

Great, Papa Lima. It does look better than what I got from my Photoshop.
Thanks.

Now, I hope you enjoyed this pics and for all the people in the UK, Take good care for the Bucker and my favourite FW44 Stieglitz (my name)! They are great planes and I am sad to see them leave. But I know that they are in good hands with their new owner.
Cheers,
J.V.
