Does the Twin Pin fly?

No not without its wings it doesn’t but I haven’t posted those pics yet!:D. Under restoration but problems locating drawings to manufacture new wing attachments, the existing ones having life expired.

David is, of course, correct. Asymmetric elevators is a design feature where 14″ was cut off to resolve buffeting issues. It wasn’t clear if this was as a result of the increased flight deck bubble on the MK 8 or if all models were so. The CAF example is technically a Devon being a 104 C1 but is registered with the CAA as a Mk 8.

Horses mouth

Ah Moggy beat me to it. I say if it sounds like foreign muck it is foreign muck mainly made from foreign ingredients. What’s wrong with the good old bangers and mash like my momma used to make, with gravy made with beef dripping.

Anyway isn’t M & S a bit up market, M & S is for investing not shopping in, and very well it is doing too, I have to shop at Tescos. Next three pages will be about which is the cheapest supermarket and which is most ethical, and that will be drift!!

Hi Tom and welcome to the forum and the information.

We enjoyed the day very much and thought a lot of effort had been put in which is a massive achievement for a single “Company” event. I thought the day was a success from a spectator point of view and hope you thought it was a success too.
I think the main cause of our grumpiness was the cold wind but at least the rain held off until today. You will have notice that a large number of attendees where men of a certain age following their photographic hobby. The fence does have a couple of viewing apertures at one end, perhaps as time allows more could be added. The burger bar was excellent at a very reasonable price unlike some venues.
So basically nit picking really which means there wasn’t really anything bad to say.
Thank you for a great show and the opportunity to see this wonderful collection in the air and hope you concidered the day a success and will arrange further events.
Speaking to local people and at the hotel nobody seemed to be aware that an airshow was taking place.

It has occurred to me that the individual displays were widely spaced as they were waiting for their slots at an active airfield. It was a cold wind and lots, including myself, were “commenting” on the long “delays” between displays so that would account for it and is understandable.

Deleted wrong aeroplane!!!!

Thanks Anon, Well observed I hadn’t noticed, I look later to see if I have a closer pic.
