IL2: Bucket Of Sh*t?

Want

What a jolly good idea Crasharoo! I think I may do a similar thing to mine as they currently just buried in a drawer (including original IL2 )

Welcome Meaker! Hope to see you over the SE of England sometime soon

Haha, you crazy Dutchman! You just can't help 'getting creative' can you Arjen

Jolly good! I may have to re-watch them myself

For those of you who have not seen this series, all episodes are on YouTube. I've not watched it in about a decade, but seem to remember it's worth a look. Of course one of its main stars is the late Susannah York of Battle of Britain movie fame. (I can hear Painless salivating from here!) It's other main star is also Duxford's resident B-17 'Sally B' in it's earlier 'Ginger Rogers' natural metal guise.

Looks incredible!!

Many Happy Returns of the day Gec Sir!

Happy Birthday!

Wow, that is impressive!

Lucky chaps and a testament to the design.

The famous Navy ace has passed away aged 96. Those that have been to Duxford will recall that the TFC F6F is painted in his colours (some reports suggest there are parts of his original aircraft included in the restoration). An interesting article here, especially the part where he was almost dropped from the Navy! What might never have been... http://www.navalaviationmuseum.org/history-up-close/might-famous-navy-ace/?pid=481 RIP Sir, Blue Skies.

Ooooh, I could be up for this! Plenty of places I'd like to visit, I'd need to have a proper think though.

And I can confirm it looks even better in real life! Fantastically finished daddy-o.

Truly incredible. Now I feel even more insignificant.

I know Kermit can often polarise opinion with his approach to 'operating' his vast collection, but i'm sure we can all appreciate this video

Fabulous pictures, thanks for sharing mate!

And that's why it's not called the Shrew... https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=1519575938303216&set=vb.1442356079358536&type=2&theater

Saw this elsewhere. Truly remarkable!

Ray Hanna, at his finest No camera trickery here gentleman, that is the master at work.

The track is an edited 'Recognizer' by Daft Punk from the Tron Legacy soundtrack. It's fantastic, heavily influenced by Hans Zimmer no doubt.

Excellent work as usual FT! Thanks matey

Fantastic!!!! Shock waves, mirrors, those exhaust flames, wow what an excellent job these guys are doing! Can't wait.
