oooooooo - yes please!

I'm inclined to agree Kira - The F-86A is a unique airframe and we have been very fortunate in the UK that it has been based here so long and (perhaps) naturally, people (myself included) are sad to see it leave but the warbird business is precisely that - a business and airframes whether unique, historic or whatever move about all the time and what people tend to forget is that this gives us the chance to see new stuff on a fairly regular basis. As you rightly point out the real crime would be failing to look after something that you hold in trust for the future - don't get me started on a certain aircraft acquired by a certain individual in a certain country which was then allowed to decompose gently in a hangar (allegedly). Moving on...

Next Thursday is the next one and most Wednesdays too

I'm still trying to!

I'd just like to point out that the above is nothing to do with Jabo Enterprises.

Good call Crash and that 18-55IS kit lense is nice too You just need to hire the 100-400mm L IS USM from lensesforhire.co.uk for Leg ends and you'll be away!

+1 Crash for a good idea -1 me for not thinking/suggesting that.

Stick it in a hot oven for a few minutes - apparently this sometimes works although I'm very sceptical Failing that - I think you're looking at a new one mate.

I must have missed that bit. Never mind. Sorry Dave.

2nd & 4th Thursday? I thought it was only the 2nd - not to worry though as we're there every Wednesday too!

Anyone have a vid of Tom singing the mooooostache song?

Sadly, I've been banned from doing this (I've been made fully aware of which side my bread is buttered if you follow my meaning) so I shall be making a donation in due course BB!

Amazing

So the point is to ram the opposition? I wondered what I was doing wrong! Lol. Stunning visuals though.

Happy birthday chaps! Have a great one whatever you are doing!

Right, I'm going to do something like this - This is all YOUR fault ODH, oh, and the missus wants a word.

Yeah I think I knew that plane was in the film but just the way the article was written referring to the 'real' Battle of Britain smacks of dodgy research. Not that it matters especially.

I'm not convinced Chris. If that's the title of the movie then surely there would be quotes around the title and it would say movie - I have to admit I did wonder but then put it down to over-enthusiastic reporting! Let's face it, getting the type right is something of an achievement!

"An original Mark IX Spitfire that actually flew in the real Battle of Britain is the jewel of the fleet and will return to England." Really - now that's amazing. Especially as that mark didn't go into service until late '42. Still another Mk9 is a good thing regardless. Thanks Pook.

I like it too and after some practice I land more often than I crash - just.

Looks like Mr Romain and the boys at Area 51 are going to be busy.

Might be good FT I'd also like to see some later missions ending at perhaps 20:00 so we're coming home at dusk thinking about the empty beds in the billets and empty seats at dispersal tomorrow but looking forward to a pint with your fellow squadron members in the pub shortly. Or something like that. The evening skies are amazing in CloD.

True, but he's our badger (and token dutch guy)
