I chose my pictures for the following reasons:

With the first picture I have finally acheived a decent air to air warbird shot although it lost a little in the scanning process, taken on 7th December 2003.

The second shot from October illustrates that it’s not just big shows such as Duxford where you can get a gathering of warbirds, these three aircraft were / are flown for fun by their owners and happened to gather on a private farm strip where this picture was taken, all three had flown around the skies of East Anglia before arriving at the strip for lunch and were flown again later in the afternoon.

Can someone find a good P-40 picture from 2003 for my favorite?

All these Mustangs and Spitfires (all you ever hear about or see on this forum) are making me sick….

Stuff it then, shan’t bother in the future 😡

and this, despite what some may say, it’s not often you see a sight like this on a farm strip.

Don’t tell me Black Knight has lost Janie AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

Shame is not the word i would have used,disgraceful possibly that an aircraft like this is allowed to migrate,[sorry if i’m wrong]

The sad thing is there was nobody prepared to buy it in the UK at the time so away she had to go, at least AE977’s owner does let some of his aircraft come to the UK each year so it’s possible AE977 may come back one day.

When we got bored with the first one we had another go
