    I would have said pink, and lighter pink…

    A minor collision – both aircraft landed safely. If there was any major damage, I’m sure there’s a Hawk or two in storage somewhere…:)

    Saw “Appointment in London” on E4 the other day. Good film, lots of Lancs!

    Was a pleasant surprise in the credits. A familiar name appeared…

    Story: John Wooldridge

    Screenplay: John Wooldridge

    Music composed and conducted by (you guessed it): John Wooldridge

    Quite a multi-talented Bomber pilot he was then!

    And then what would happen?

    Anyone remember the 1980s TV drama “Threads”… That all started with a tac nuke strike in Iran…

    meanwhile the 1st suspect has been released without charge.

    (On Bail I believe), but more worryingly, with a permanent scar on his character, having had his face plastered over the tabloid and “serious” press, his character dissected in minute detail, and, in yet another idiotic move by our ever more moronic BBC*, has been heard discussing his personal “relationships” with the 5 women in question in an interview recorded with him for reference use, not for broadcast.

    *I couldn’t believe the Jeremy Vine show today…

    “If aeroplanes can fly at night, why can’t they fly in fog” was the main discussion topic.:rolleyes:

    What bothers me is the position of the wings and main gear. They seem to be placed to far aft.
    But then again, it can fly.

    Is that an engineering or purely aesthetic opinion?

    All traces of dribble were removed from the Bestmann when the Ryan had finished being blinged yesterday! 😀

    Boootiful, although I think certain people were concerned by the lack of “blingable” and polishable surfaces on the Bestmann… :p 😉 😀

    Yes. I’m not sure about being more comfortable, but potentially a lot safer IIRC.
