JensenPark Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 It won't be the same without the Canadian contingent. Sure, it will be more fun, and less bitching about the Cdn's drinking booze without chipping in...but there will be no one there get into a row with the German flyers. Have a blast guys. Don't be stingy on the pictures please. Painless: mind you manners and respects the other Dogz personal zones. Including their butts. You perv.

1. DDz Quorum B16Enk Posted July 8, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted July 8, 2011 I dropped Rox off at the hotel, met Largie. The guys had gone in search of atmosphere, I think it was cheap alcohol really! Jabo was awaiting Sweper to land apparently.. I'm sure some drunken drawl will appear here later! I'm back @ home for the night now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluBear Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 After a curry and alcohol fuelled night, the Dogz awaken to the sound of Merlins and Pratt and Whitneys and the sweet smell of burning oil. Hold on... We're not at Duxford yet... The sounds... They're in my head... In anticipation! The smells? Hmmm.... Well, Time for breakfast, to kickstart the day!!

1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted July 10, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted July 10, 2011 Short report of what has been goin'on today, pics ánd details: Three Spitfires in formation: IL2 Pilot and his rear gunner: Junkers 52: Ánd it took to the air, it's on Video. (Please have patient, within 12 months from now, the Dogz-At-Duxford DVD-set will be released) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kira Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Yak 52, or the Chinese equivalent thereof, the Nanchang CJ-6, looks like. Decent trainer. Have a blast, gang! Wish I could join you. Oh, and RedBull does a beautiful P-38! It's not White Lightning anymore, but I don't think Lefty Gardner would be overly disappointed at its current state.

Who taught you how to resize FT? Obviously no one. Centre is Blubear and on the left is Rox. Oh, yes, just got in - laptop went U/S on Friday so no updates possible - What a bloody fantastic couple of days though - Thanks to all who made such a fantastic time possible, especially the overseas contingent for making the effort to come and visit amd the UK dogz for being just as insane as always. The planes, the beer, the premier of the DDz anthem rewritten especially by Friar after Fenrir had spent absolutely months on it, the beer, the hen party... What a blast! Oh yes, and there's some pictures as well - Will have them here shortly. Jabo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1. DDz Quorum Friar Posted July 10, 2011 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted July 10, 2011 Home now and all unpacked. Another great fantastic weekend. All the guys were brilliant, one of our more recent recruits, Blue Bear played an absolute blinder and I would hereby like to nominate him for the position of Provisions and Logistics He picked a great spot to watch the show, which I am sure will be demonstrated by the pictures Swep, Jabo and Crash took. He was able to book us into a Curry House (which for some reason emptied soon after we arrived), Find a Fish and Chip shop and order Cod and chips for 15!. Well done Sir. Saturday night was finished off back at the hotel, I gave a Priory of St Oleg meeting, We sang some songs and Rox produced some Eastern European Fire Water which finished us off (did'nt get to bed till 01:15am, and was NOT the last to leave......) I more structured report will follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
