LOL, I thought that was going to be a ghost aircraft story for a minute! 😮

A rather typical reaction there-‘you’re not involved in aircraft preservation, so you have no right to an opinion’.

WRONG.

The ‘Halifax’ (I’ll use the name loosely) was put together so Joe-Paying Public (i.e, the likes of me) could see what one looked like. I wasn’t impressed, and have said as much. I think it’s a poor facsimile, and in no real way really represents the type as a whole.

If you want to see a Halifax, take yourself off to Hendon or over to Canada, where the only two whole survivors rest, end of story.

It’s a shame that yet again, comments that started out light-heartedly-or can’t you read the expression on the smilies faces?-has degenerated into another ‘discussion’ like this.

😉

‘most people don’t even know that the props turn the other way, did you Lancman?’

Actually, yes I did.

‘p.s. Lancman, did you know that there are drawings showing the Grand Slam installation and the Upkeep bomb in the Halifax?’

And?!

‘Only thing I wonder about is why I keep finding so many Lancaster wrecks in Holland but only a few Halifaxes……mmmmmmm.’

Ridiculous statement.

:p

LOL @ Moggy and Ant! 😉

…although this has forced their hands, proving that we do in fact HAVE a webmaster-after the steadfast silence that always greeted the ‘Spooky’ threads! 😉

Send it to Elvington-they can scratchbuild the rest and call it a ‘Stirling’!!! 😉

“…and also in the news, at East Kirkby airfield the Panton brothers were today forced to admit that selling ‘Taxi Our Lanc Yourselves’ tickets had not been the success that they’d hoped for.” 😮

I gave up on Klick a while back for much the same reasons-the prints were always ‘off’ somehow or other, and were often scratched, too; I use our local branch of Jessops now, who do a great job, and give you a reasonable quality free film each time, too! 🙂
