    Here is a picture of the British Aerospace Mosquito when Dad did the paint and fabric. It shows both the red and the silver dope

    I also used the Trevor Thom books but the PPL Confuser is very good for revision. If there were areas that I had problems with I went straight back to the Thom books.

    There are a number of different tests for each subject. What I used to do was do one paper and not move onto the next until I consistently got 100%. I did start to answer the questions in different orders after the first attempt otherwise you get used to the pattern of X’s on the answer sheet…

    The PPL Confuser is £23.95 from transair.

    Have you got the “PPL Confuser” book?

    It basically has all the possible questions that will appear on all of the exams. There are other books like this and I did try to use them, but the PPL confuser seems to match the exam style much better than the others.

    It’s well worth it. I picked mine up from Transair.

    Good luck.

    It was the ARCo Storch. It joined the Historic Aircraft Collection at the end of 2002

    Yakrider,

    I like that one too, but not because of the Bulldog 🙂

    The Storch that is being built at Gransden is 3/4 scale. The Gentleman who acted as one of the German officers in our Storch/Cub scenario is building it.

    It’s one Mum took from the back of the Storch on the way over to Little Gransden this morning.

    Good luck finding a way to post your photos.

    It was a good day.

    I may be slightly biased here, but for me the highlight of the day was the Cub/Storch display. Ken Ellis was great on the commentary through out that scenario. Thanks Ken…

    I look forward to seeing everyone else’s photos. Mine are not worth posting here. I’ll leave that to the rest of you.

    It was good to meet Damien as well today.

    Well done to everyone involved.

    Hurricane photos

    Chris,

    Here are the pictures as promised of the nose art on the side of the HAC hurricane. Contact me off the board and I can send you the full size photos if you want them. I also have some other photos showing the whole cowling so you can get the size correct.

    I do not have any information on the original XR-T. Good luck with your search.
