Re: P-51D Mustang "Jersey Jerk"
The irony is that Sywell clearly thought people would turn up, not pay, and photograph their new prize asset before the event even started, then leave.
And this thread, not even remotely surprisingly, has validated their assumption.
Good going folks.

Re: Interesting Internet
Fairly or unfairly, Boeing are not having an amazing time of it lately after the door plug issue (itself after all the other issues). Unfairly. No-one has reported the United A320 incident! Or the United 737MAX rudder incident. Or the United 737 engine shutdown mid-flight. Or the United 757 engine ...

Re: New Medium Helicopter - Discuss
The cost of building it at Yeovil rather than on an already established production line would be astronomical. Which is probably exactly why the MOD will go for it.

£30 for a nightshoot? That's nice pricing.

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread
As ever, the issue really is one of inflation vs wages.
For the last two years RIAT is the only aviation thing I've done, but I think this year it'll be a year of nothing instead.

So all those people who stood up for RAFAT when I and other suggested they needed to be disbanded *months* ago, what do you think now?

Re: Albatross N98TP
I'm not sure, and a follow-up question is when was the last time two airworthy Grumman flying boats were in the UK at the same time?
Goose N4575C arrived today, I believe into Coventry of all places.

Re: Interesting Internet
It requires 4 engines and must be built on an airframe designed and built in the US. Rather limits the scope of the project.

1200 has passed, nothing changed or nothing happend, as expected Marketing 101, if you tease something, damn well make sure it happens! Edit: Oh, it did happen. It's a 2 minute long video to say there was an airshow last year. Christ, that didn't warrant the tease! https://twitter.com/airtattoo/sta...
