Just regarding the Westland Whirlwind, why was it never repowered with Merlins as they knew the Peregrine’s were unreliable.
It’s definitely a nice looking aircraft.
Cheers, Chris
Thanks for the pics, James.
Superb as usual, especially the close up of the tail one.
I’m just astounded at how high you guys here rate the La-9.
……One day closer to Easter…….:D
beautiful pics, thanks JDK !!!:)

Every flight ??????
How many times can you go up in a P-51 in your lifetime??? 🙂
Trouble is both the women and Lilttle Miss La9 are impossible to resist
Which would be cheaper to run ???:D
posted by Yak 11 Fan Every flight in a P51 is an absolute buzz, it’s every bit and more than I ever thought it would be. Pulling 4g in a flyby is an awesome experience. You won’t be disappointed.

mmm,…I’d better start saving then…:D
Well, I’m a relatively new member to this forum but am enjoying it immensely. Such a wealth of information to be gained….
Anyway, this is me…..in Wellington, New Zealand.
Nice one Neal!
I’ll make sure I also get some pics of the P-40 too, specially for you, Dez.
🙂
Here’s the pic of my favourite,…apologies for small pic
Similar to Daz’s I guess….but the Rolls Royce Spit XIX in the PR blue REALLY floats my boat !!!
If the La-9 was a woman, she’d be the sort you’d look at and really admire,…but stay well clear,,,,,:D
I promise, I promise, I promise to get some great pics !!:)
That closeup of the spinner is a good one, JDK
You will be able to take better piccies with wonderful scenery than that,you will post them wont you,promise,promise
You betcha !!!!!
Buying an extra mem card for the camera to take esp for the airshow
I guess it wouldn’t be practical to scale down the wheels to fit the wing and still be able to operate from unprepared strips with nosing over.
Sounds like a fascinating project.
stunning pics !!!:)
