I added a pair of mine taken in 1990 at Geneseo taken in the lousy weather, but it was still a great site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadly_magpie Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Yes, well done. I was all over this beast when it was in Edmonton, took a ton of pics but my camera is just adequate. I got to take the sequel to one of my old pics; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2. Administrators Jabo Posted August 14, 2009 2. Administrators Share Posted August 14, 2009 LOL, nice one DM, but WTF is that in the background of the '79 pic? That folded wing looks HUGE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadly_magpie Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 That would be an Avenger. They are MASSIVE for single engined A/C. It was lost along with a flyable Spit and Hurri when the very hangar in the picture BURNED in the early 90's. The Lanc was luckily on its gear and was dragged away from the flames by volunteers. Close one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadly_magpie Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Hey Squawk! Yes it is the exact same Lanc, 30 years apart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enforcer57 Posted August 15, 2009 Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 Interesting shot man. Love the old shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2. Administrators Jabo Posted August 16, 2009 2. Administrators Share Posted August 16, 2009 Avenger - of course. It was the RAF roundels that threw me. It's been quite a while since I've seen one. There's one airworthy example in the UK, although I don't think it's been flown much in recent years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
