Lucky old you – just up my street – thanks for sharing them.:) Are they Farnborough, V- bombers or just marvellous 50s miscellenia?

Didn’t you see this picture of our friend? – He’s even beyond a wheelchair ramp!!:diablo:

One of my most favourite airliners. Many thanks for these memories – again!!:)

Just cannot wait to see her – on the ground and in ther air!!

Roobarb – marvellous – what a find!:D
