Recently flown to Villavicencio COL for a new owner.
…and there was that KNILMDC-2, DC-3, DC-5 formation…
Guess it’s a Sweden – Holland – Goodwood – Holland – Sweden flight. Most likely back in Stockholm by now.
Just read in the Belgian aviation magazine Aeronews of Belgium (Jul/Aug 2012 issue) a story on MH434. When flying in 222Sq, a Fl.Lt. H.P. Lardner-Burcke (South-African nationality) flew this Spit and scored two-and-a-half kills on 27 Aug, 5 and 8 Sep. Could it be a misinterpretation / wrong spelling of names?
According to the US register, both aircraft are reported as sold by Aces High US Inc. to International Air Service Inc. on 10 May 2012.
Is there a chance that the programme comes available on dvd? Only viewers in UK can see the missed programs…
Have fun today, safe flying!
Yep, that’s the one! Thanks for your help Robbo!
Folks,
When I recall well – one never knows when Alzheimer Light starts… – Stephen Grey gave a waterproof analysis on the ID of his / TFC’s “Twilight Tear”. I don’t have the link at hand now, but please check that. Former SE-BKG was the “Twilight Tear”.
…and to close the circle by answering the first question on the B-25: DBAF’s bomber was never grounded because of insurance problems!
Braking problems after landing, at the end of the RW the plane ran into a ditch.
N295BS is still in NL, based Eindhoven.
The plane hasn’t been flown by HRH Prince Bernhard.
Contact TFC Duxford.
Unfortunately the site states:
25 Mon Madingley American Military Cemetery
Regrettably Sally B’s flypast is cancelled due to a technical problem
Hi all,
Thanks for the info!
Kind regards,
