I’ve heard August/September somewhere…

Thanks,better keep an eye out and take some pics from the fence when the end comes !

The Germans are coming, don’t panic Mr Mainwarring!

Don’t tell them your name Pike ! 😀

[QUOTE=N.Wotherspoon;1241321]Recall this site & visiting it with members of the Pennine Aviation Museum – the farmer was very friendly & pleased some blades would be going to be preserved & by prior arrangement we had turned up with a trailer full of brand new fence posts. This was all he wanted in exchange + we removed the blades and fitted the new posts of course 😀

I later heard that as word got around “enthusiasts” were turning up after dark & just helping themselves, leaving gaps in his fence and potentially allowing livestock to escape 😮 A new fence post and half an hours work was all it would have taken to keep the farmer happy, yet for some even this was too much effort!:mad:

Mine was legally aquired and is still pride of place in my lounge after 30 + years in my ownership.Does anyone know what they would have fitted ?

It never showed still delayed at the moment , engine oil temp problem im told ,

Cheers,Could do with it dropping into Ringway some time 😀

Saw a load of Rotol wooden prop blades in use as fence posts south of Mcr airport/Knutsford area a few years back. Still there I suppose. Apparently ex-Woodford.
I have seen many an aircraft wheel in use on farm trailers too.
If anyone comes across a Gloster Meteor F8 nose cone, please let me know. Can’t find one anywhere to fit my cockpit section yet there were literally hundreds of this type of aircraft scrapped in the 50’s/60’s.

This prop came from a farmer in Cheshire.My late Father came home with it after asking the farmer if he could give one of the props to me as i was aircraft mad !

AAAAhhhhh !!!! I hate work 😡 All i could do today was keep checking my computer to see what fun was being had ! Stunning to see her flying even with the door down,roll on airshow season.

I bet he hates fueling the thing ! I knew someone with one and he was happy with early teens in the MPG stakes 😮 Who can live with that fuel economy nowadays ????
