Almost 14:00, time to move out......should be there about 17:00. See you soon!!!

Cheers. Not a Spittie mate, it's a MiG 3....still beautiful though, it's got great lines...looks like a racer. It's this one....

No need for an enlargement of my 110s destruction Rattler........I know it's mine even in the dark lol

Hey!!! I resemble that remark!! As said, the more the merrier! Would be great to see you there also!!!

A good selection of footage, I'm an old git and have no appreciation of the music genre whatsoever.....although it's inclusion looks like the way IL2 vids are done generally. The vid gave a great impression of BoB action. Lots of bombers, Spits and Hurris doing the job, Channel scenery. Never seen the action at 1:15 before, a pilot struggling to open his canopy in order to get out of his stricken aircraft. Also the He111 gunner being strafed and the 'gore' internally. Wow.... A great effort and a great summary of our event Cheerzen

Nope, he climbed rapidly and turned away, running parallel to the field about half a mile out before disappearing

I was out on my motorbike today and went to my favourite cuppa stop - Bidford Gliding Club - it's only half an hour away and there's usually something going on. I briefly met the pilot and chatted about bikes but unfortunately I didn't realise he was the pilot 'til he got in! I asked him if I could take some piccies from the non-active side of the fence and he obviously agreed. He had just topped up with fuel and shortly after the pics were taken he started up, taxied to the other side of the field and waited for a glider/tug launch and a light aircraft landing before taking off. Bit distant during this and he turned away from the field when airborne The aircraft is 'G-BOZS' Cheerzen

It would have been me GK. I have trawled the net for solutions and there are none. Plenty of forums/threads from people who have tried to contact Hotmail about this but have had no success. They have got the impression that the spam comes from Hotmail itself because no-one has found anything malicious on their computer. My daughter uses Outlook and I think that is where it came from. So far I have changed login password and personal information. I that doesn't work that it's ta-ta to that account.

I am at a loss with this. For a couple of months our main email address that we both use has been sending out an email advertising viagra to all the contacts in that account. It does it once a week and it is becoming a REAL PITA. It's a 'Hotmail' account. Is it best to delete it and start again? I think it came from an email that was sent to us that we opened that has since been deleted. I've tried Avira, MalwareBytes, AVG and ALL come back having found nothing. How do I find out where it is and how do I get rid of this feckin' thing please? Cheerzen Sid (feeling very) Viscious

Got bored with the normal ones..........

A few from tonight (Thurs 20/5) Painless and Sid in Corsair pair Sid's Stuka Painless and Squawk's paired landing A great night! Thanks hosts, Dino....FT....and T_O_A_D. Cheerzen

Well, thank you Sid, it is nice of you to think of me in that way!.....oh...he was talking about the bees......not me.........oh....not even the beautiful bit........ah...... How nice...that's the worrying part

Well done Jim, that's a great idea. There seems to be an issue with bees worldwide at the moment that has been going on for some years now so anything that will support them is crucial. There is a view that without them and other pollinators our food supply would be hit very badly due to the lack of crop fertilisation. Bees are one of those natural wonders. Beautiful to look at, how the hell do they fly and the job they do for us is crucial. Love 'em!

Some screenies from tonights co-ops (Thurs 13th May) Sid's F4U Selection of Russian victors DDs waiting on the runway and thinking about doing a 'Lucky Boy' Great evening, ~S~ guys

If they haven't any in stock then they should get one for you, or if they have anything about them they should offer you an equivalent. They've had your money........

New card? No warranty?

This Jetlev is a great concept and looks like FUN!! Perhaps Painless and Fireman have built something similar and used it on a lake or river? I did some years ago - it didn't take off but it was a means of getting around on water...... As a crew at work, we took 2 fire engines to the local lake, in fact a disused quarry. We took 6 sections of short ladder and lashed four together in a square, then used the other 2 sections as bracing and a 'floor'. We then 'waterproofed' it and gave it buoyancy by placing the structure on a large plastic salvage sheet, folded up the sides and lashed it onto the ladders using a line. A portable fire pump was placed onto the floor and the suction hose and filter was placed and submerged in the water to the rear (similar to the Jetlev). We finally took 2 angled couplings off the hydrant standpipe, connected these to the water deliveries on either side of the pump and connected a controllable nozzle in each. The pump was started, water sucked up and discharged through the rearward facing nozzles. Opening and closing the nozzles gave us direction, but not much speed. Still, it worked and showed that the reaction from the jet of water was enough to provide forward motion.Great fun at the time and a good application of ingenuity and adaptability. Wish I had some photos. We did this a couple of times but lost interest when we realised that the lake was 30ft deep and that if it capsized we would loose the lot...in fact, another crew tried it on a shallower lake at Hewell Grange, a local prison, and did sink. Fortunately they were able to retrieve the gear. As an aside, Hewell Grange was used by US Forces during WW2 and it was rumoured that when they finally left, Jeeps and other equipment were dumped in the lake there. This has fascinated me for years and it was only recently that I found out that the kit wasn't dumped in the lake - it was buried in the grounds and forms part of the dam wall for the ornamental lake. Not much chance of recovering that really!! Cheerzen

What on earth went wrong here

You are too kind Thanks Arthur Lol, GK, one of the few times I elected to fly Red....the odds looked better! A screenshot of the points is in the gallery.....Red did very well!!

Cheers Fruitbat, much appreciated! Time to have a good firtle.....
