    You are by no stretch of the imagination a dealer Tony – any suggestion otherwise is ill informed to say the least.

    Thanks we had a great time as well, sorry the guns hadnt been fitted just completed them today ready for their first outing at war on the Line this weekend. Might have been just a bit to much for the village :dev2: Must say they were pretty tolerant of the noice especially ten oclock at night.
    Thanks for having us. 🙂

    Thats the problem with the forum sometimes you dont know who the person behind the user name is, when i offered to send you a mag switch i thought you were just a poor formulite with a project. When I realised who you were a dealer after a freebie, someone I have bought quite a bit from myself I thought you would be more than capable of getting one yourself.
    By the way I still have the genuine mosquito door you sold me :rolleyes: you know the one with Mosquito stencilled across the glass.

    common enuff….only rare if you have one for sale!

    Round Oil temp gauges common are they ? I dont think so Old chap. There are quite a few Rad temp gauges about but oil temp are RHS. I havent managed to figure out why but there is no question Oil temps out number rad temps 10 to 1.
    I would be happy to buy if you point in the direction of all these common oil temp gauges instruments.

    Certainly a great few days especially the hords of young ladys that pursued Myself and Baz around every pub insisting on sitting on our knees, I guess thats just the price you have to pay for being a YOUNG (Mr Saunders) Fighter Pilot and a film star :dev2:
    I can happily report that the race to get loaded after filming was won by the MK IX even after a delay helping Baz load his MK II 😉
    Baz give me a call or are you still in bed recovering???????:rolleyes:
