    Is it just me having problems getting the article.

    I followed exactly what you said but :-

    after I click evening news there is no features link to click.

    There is only a features link in the Scotsman part of the site.

    Please advise as I would really like to see this story. If I cant get it any chance of a scan of the page.

    Hi guys.

    I am sure it was mentioned at the airshow that it is kept at Archerfield airfield. Part of the Archerfield estate of The Duke of Hamilton, who was flying his Scottish Aviation Bulldog and gave a fine display of the aircraft at East Fortune as did Gavin in the FW190 but I have to admit our model club had a better display the Sunday before as some of you will have seen from my digi pics posted earlier.

    Well done to all those who said FW190.

    Correct!

    It was invited to do a display by one of our model pilots who met the pilot. He said would he mind if he flew over so was invited to give a display. We also have enjoyed a display by the Pitts Special and Starduster Too recently who often visit the field.

    Der right about East Fortune being a local field but not my local field. We fly from Drem which is 5 mins away and a far better model flying site than EF.

    Here are a couple more pics from my small digi camera which really isnt up to the job but I didnt expect to see this across my bows so in future I will carry my pentax. Dont be dissapointed with the quality I tell you this now so you will be prepared.

    While I support the actions of people to have these photos seen I would rather see them in the public house for myself than some greedy individual trying to make some cash on the whole deal.

    I would only support his getting rights to the images if he made a big donation with the profits to the RAFA or similar group

    Rhodes teacher shoots tourist resort burglar

    A teacher of English at a seaside holiday resort on Rhodes was arrested yesterday for shooting and wounding an Albanian national he caught trying to burgle his house.

    Doesnt a man have the right to defend his own home and guests.I admit it is a little extreme but consider this that if I could pass sentence I would have the Albanian burglar dragged through the street by his Bal*s and then slung in jail just for his troubles. I just have to think back with my conversation with the English guy and think how much trouble other nationalities are making for the Greek nationals that live and work in Rhodes and Greece in general.

    Just a little quote from someone in the USA I think Robin Williams said this and at the time it was quite funny and seems like it kinda fits with this story.

    ***We live in a world where we have the right to bears arms and the right to arm bears.***

    I cant help it if I find the guy funny.

    Hey Icarus,

    Ever heard of sarcasm. Thats what I meant by Quote**I have to wonder were they cleared by ATC. I dont think so**Unquote.

    Dont like political discussions but I had something to add to this discussion but now I dont as I dont realy know much on the whole historical who came from where typed thing.

    All I know is they got great sun there, good people and company. Like to work hard to please their customers and let you drink all night if you want.

    What better place to be than Greece.
