Anyway, check out the earlier thread of the Oscar ground running again.
When I first saw this just now, I thought it was bent AGAIN !!!
Thanks goodness it’s not the case……

The Aviator hasn’t quite got to NZ yet, but will definitely go and see it when it does.
Flight of the P has just arrived so will see that this weekend.
Maybe they all might have mistakes but at least there are aircraft films being made, gotta be better than that cr*ppy Ocean’s 12 I just saw..:(

I seem to remember that Saudi Arabia also bought a handfull of Buckaroo’s. Saw this machine at Sun N’ Fun last April -it’s stunning .
It’s obviously very well loved and looked after by it’s owner – so much so that I found this from Nuvite polish advertising !!!
The small pic I posted here doesn’t do the shiny look justice.
Truly beautiful

maybe I should have said type of aircraft……..
Thanks, Loco 😀 😉

Has Leonardo have a genuine interest in aircraft ?
Like for instance, Harrison Ford did a lot of flying of the DH Beaver in that very average film “Six days, Seven nights” and of course we all know what Mr Travolta’s interest in aviation is like…

Thanks so much guys,
Cheers

I concur, and a beautiful pic BTW 🙂

Nasa was also looking at them.
They were going to convert them into landplanes for hauling rockets sections around the country but nothing came of it.
TNZ
ha ha ha…gonna say it….will it be at Leg**ds ??? :p 😀
TNZ
Agreed !!
Lot of aircraft just for 108 passengers, when you consider a little old boring 737-400’s size will carry the same… 😮

…and more interesting pics from the Seawings website..
