    OK, on topic then, did I read somewhere that there was a MkVIII project in the UK which came out of Australia recently?

    No, Mike, it’s the P-51D Mustangs that all look the same…

    Or can’t you tell your Spitfires from your Hurricanes?

    😉

    Ummmm, there is a reason all P51D’s look the same, it’s a bit like saying all Supermarime Walrii look the same or all MkV Spitfires look the same. They are the same!!!!! Just some are better than others :p

    Seriously though (unusual for me I must admit) it does make an interesting if slightly unusual effect

    I may do but I think it’s more likely that I will be at Seething, we will see what the week brings.

    Were there any Harvards at Rougham yesterday, in spite of being in Bury St Edmunds all weekend I completely failed to go to Rougham.

    It looks like Howard has lost his roll of carpet 😀

    However I would dispute the markings on that particular aircraft, are they authentic ?????

    You mean this is not a flight suit modelling photograph for the next Transair catalogue???

    To get back on to topic for a little while I would very much like to see a B26 Marauder in the UK, my preferance would be for an airworthy machine (I know there is only 1 currently) but failing that I would love to see one preserved at Duxford in the AAM. Again an aircraft the played a vital role in Europe during WW2.

    a clock? that must make them tick.

    You mean something like a time bomb!!! Could explain the frequent explosions with no apparent warning or reason (or is that just the ones I’ve met over the years???)

    Some of it is. It’s a big old beast when in a dismantled state.

    Last spotted stored in a dismantled state in North Norfolk. Saw it on the ground in September last year but flew over a couple of months ago and it was still there, don’t think anything has been done to it in 10 years or so.

    Yeah, just can’t be ar$ed to go find another horse just yet… 😉

    Ah but you never know when a horse may find you!!!!

    Sorry to hear the news Steve, hope things work out for you.

    As for what makes them tick, I don’t think that will ever be found out, for goodness sake they don’t even know themselves. Wierd bunch women!!!!
