Is there any update on how the painting and the rest of the work is going?

Remember the tail number from my time on 72 in early 90’s and refuelling it out and about NI. Easy to fit panel out? I remember having a complete set of Wessex instruments after one had touched the ground at bishops court all going to scrap.

BBMF MK356 looked great over elvington today ….. The silver against the clear blue sky and silver reflecting the sun ….. Amazing.

Steve,

Have you tried the HFL guys at saints for any info/help?

Is this for the station closure coming up? (there 2001/2005)

For me, it’s those tiny wayside cemeteries that are the most moving. IIRC, outside Viller-Bocage is a beautifully tended cemetery with a single British officer’s grave. Clearly local people think an awful lot of him

I agree, when staying in France you come across many of these smaller cemeteries and I make a point of stopping and paying my respects.

Found a small one near houlle that was a small group of WWI headstones with a couple from May 1940.

I hang my head in shame though as there is a CWGC just down the road in Harrogate and I have yet to go, time to change that.
