    Don’t think so, wasn’t that LA546 and LA564 (or something along those lines) I suspect that somebody here will know.

    VP441 was at one time owned by the Confederate Air Force and by Reflectaire before that.

    It could be interesting to see it back in the air one day.

    Looks as though it was a good day, the Yak 11 is G-YCII in case anyone was interested.

    ……and thoroughly good bloke, I had the good fortune to fly with both him and his brother a few times during the 90’s, as well as being ground crew for him many times whilst he was displaying Eddie Coventry’s Yak 11.

    Interesting restoration, that interior green is a bit bright and shiny though isn’t it 😎

    Good job they fly around with 8 spare aircraft then :p

    Glad nobody was hurt. (In defence of UKAR it was reported there yesterday afternoon).

    I know what I’d do with £1m I’d go into partnership to rebuild a rare type, not sure what yet. But I don’t have £1m so this may have to wait.

    To be honest I already thought it was on the Sunday, all being well I should still be there and I have no complaints about not being able to look inside aircraft, those who went to Hendon have already seen the inside of a Sunderland anyway :p

    That car is a common site cruising the streets of Lowestoft driven by one of the locals with a passion for wearing animal headgear.

    Can’t have been that lucky otherwise he wouldn’t have been in a Puma in the first place. 😀

    Evidently a good crop of Spitfires that year. Can you imagine the uproar it would produce if it happened now.

    Will the Skyhawk be flying at the weekend then? I have no idea where I will learn, but O B could be fun, I really want to blow that wig off with the propwash. I will need to hide the money from the cars as I think someone may spend it for me, PPL or new wardrobes, it’s a tough choice 😀

    Scimitar number 1 and the Laguna must go, then maybe I might learn to fly, that could be scary 😀

    I still know where the camera is, it’s very safe, just need to finish the film, maybe a Harvard will fly over at the weekend so I can take a pic or 3 of it.
