Please put me out of my misery. Where was she stored from 1965 to 1986?
Don’t worry about the grammar etc – we all have our different skills. I have no chance of tuning a Griffon and could probably just about nail together a single cylinder 2 stroke but it would take me a long time.
Hi it was stored from 1965 to 1/3/1967 at boxted , bought by Robin, Denis, Raulph Whitby the present owners, then registered on25/9/1984 , crashed due to wind shear close to ground coming into land at lt snoring on4 july 1998 sustained damage to landing gear and prop ..Changed owners to Robin Paul Whitby on 27/8 /1999, caa runs out this year Percy hatfielf is buried ic measea road cemetry Colchester, grave no cc 253 Allso they did a write up on him in Fly past mAY 1997 under Bismark Hunter. Hope the grammer is better, Any more info please ask thank you crop sprayer mick

Looks like the CAA filing system went a bit haywire and included a sheet for Heron G-ANFF on the page for G-ANFL. Maybe we should all have gone to specsavers including someone at the CAA!
Cropsprayer is a newbie here and like everyone it takes a little time to get to know how the forum works and the best way to post.
Cropsprayer – if you are still out there- I have traced picture of Jackaroo G-APHZ when it was operating with Airspray and have posted a link on your original thread.
Hi thanks to every one who replied, I have most of the info now, and know where it was stored inbetween 1965 and 1986 . Sorry for the bad gramer but when i left school i could not read or write but i walked into a skilled job as a mechanic the day i left school, spent 14 years tuning rr griffons won multiple business awards so it did not affect how successful i was, and i still carnt read very well carnt count but build top class engines oh yes. thank you for all your help every one , i will try harder

Please don’t think I’m getting at you, but your postings would be much easier to understand with a bit of punctuation and a few capitals.
You would possibly get more replies.
PERHAPS IF YOU WERE DISLEXIK YOU MIGHT UNDERSTAND

Thanks guys for the comments – always appreciated.
I have a lot of catching up to do, so I thought I’d post some pictures from a few years ago up to the present day. The quality of the older pictures isn’t that good as my camera kit then wasn’t a good as it is now.
Really dark conditions – a bit to much for the old Canon 50D to handle well – but it was an awesome afternoon. One which I’ll never forget – an F-15 going past and less than 50ft away – exhilerating is a word that comes to mind!
Burners lit – don’t know how many car and house alarms they set off – quite a few!!!
Best Hurricane display I’ve ever seen – Victory Show 2009.One of these days I might re-visit some of these old pictures and see if I can do a better job now, with CS6. If you guys get bored with these old pictures please let me know.
I hope everyone has a great Christmas and a Happy New Year.
TTFN,
Neil
