    the CAA lay down a set of rules concerning hangarage and the control of the sterile environment that allows for a final CofA.

    Would this mean the complete removal of all of the other exhibits currently on display in the Hangar JJ is kept in?, providing of course that it will be that particular Hangar it gets rebuilt in.

    So, with me being as thick as two short planks nailed together, what is the jacket patch.. and its significance?

    Nice Triumph by the way!

    The fellow laying in the grass at the side of the runway made me smile:)

    I cant get my head round anyone thinking that we only need one airworthy Lancaster. Do the same idiots think that the wonderful work done by ARCO and HFL is not required, as we allready have the BBMF Spitfires and Hurricanes? 😡

    So people who would share a different opinion are idiots eh?

    is anyone going to point out the error in his ways then !!Mk 7 being used in 1943 Lancs is bad enough,as for the Dams bit.

    I thought about it, but decided to wait for our own ‘ebay caped crusader’ to pop in and comment on it…c’mon Tangmere where are you..:)

    Lancaster bomb sight

    Cor!
    this one flew in Lancs from 1939 to 1945, been on all the major raids and the Dambusters raid too. No wonder its high price!:)

    I particularly like the Lincolnshire Fens in the background, so characteristic of WW2 bomber ops from the East of England.
    Moggy

    They are the Lincolnshire Wolds Moggy, I think the chinese made a good job of them too, though slightly overmodelled:p

    One of the Band of Brothers lead actors, Damian Lewis, portrayed an American soldier. As an Englishman he did a very good job of getting the voice correct methinks.

    Parts of the disused Rivenhall Airfield in Essex are set to disapear under a new waste site and Incinerator, acording to Anglia News, footage showed an original hanger and hard standings.

    Oh I do hope The ABCT’s ‘marker stone’ wont end up under it:diablo:

    I’m not the only one who frowns on this either then! I also cannot see the attraction of an almost mirror finish. I think it spoils the overall appearance, but hey! its not my aircraft:p

    The bomb is a 10 or an 11½Lb practice bomb.
    mine for comparison.

    There are certain elements on the MOBO which need fixing with a certain paste. It’s heat-proof stuff.
    I will get more info on Thursday (Not in workplace on Wednesday) and post it here.

    Thermal paste between the CPU and the MB. a thin layer no thicker than a sheet of good A4 paper!

    Burning out the motherboard I doubt is the lack of thermal paste IMHO, Case heat being the most likely culprit. I have no fewer than four fans supplying cool air from outside while another four exhaust hot air from the case.

    It is all about airflow over components. Badly run cables will cause heat to linger if they are blocking airflow. The same as dust build up in an older machine.
