Canadian Typhoon project moving along nicely - can you help?

Great progress by Ian and his team. Nice to see such good progress and - unlike other projects (no names) they are quite open and involved with enthusiasts like us.

Squadron and Buccaneer TV series on youtube
Some time ago I posted a link to a website that had several old tv shows but it was a Russian site so this time I found the same series on Youtube

September show ticket
Hi
Due to a recent accident I am unable to attend the Duxford Sept show. I have a ticket - and car pass - for the Saturday as well as a single room at the Travelodge Fourwentways.
Any one make use of them - small donation would be nice.

Re: Duxford Decline
I have been attending Duxford for over 20 years now - some as a volunteer so I know a bit about the place - and it never fails to amuse me that they still can`t get some things right. We arrived on the Saturday early -about 0645am - to see no car park signs so we drove past the main gate where we sa...

Re: Flying Legends 2023 - 15-16 July - Venue TBA
I hope Leeds East a good choice. It looks a nice place from their website and some Youtube videos. Looking at some reviews of past air shows there it seems traffic was a major issue - tales of 3 hrs to cover 4 miles mainly! Wishing them success with it but I`ve already booked all I can afford this y...

I posted a link to the Canadian Typhoon restoration a while back - lets look at a Canadian Tempest one now - great progress! Who do you think will fly first? This one - Richard Grace or Kermit Weeks?
