Re: Warbird Workshop Yesterday TV
I can't say I noticed picture quality was an issue. I was watching on Freesat though and not Sky. Keep your eyes peeled in Episode 2 for yours truly.

Those C-47's probably have the parts we're desperate to find to complete the restoration of our C-47.

Hi phantom6. Thanks for letting me know.
I have changed the host from Google Photos, as that seems to be the reason.
Can you see the images now?
I can see them but they're thumbnail size.

Does anybody know where all the retired HAF Dakotas/C-47's are stored? Also, does somebody have any photos taken inside any HAF Dakota either whilst in service or at the scrapyard?

Lowepro nature trekker II camera rucksack
Lowepro nature trekker II rucksack. Used and some foam partitions are missing but no tears and all zips work. It's one large solid rucksack which served me well for years. I used to carry two camera bodies, one 300mm f2.8, a 70-200mm f4 and a 24-105mm f4 in the rucksack. https://image.ibb.co/j8fHCR/...
