Fantastic to see Marinell back in the UK and unless I am very much mistaken at Duxford for the first time.
I look forward to getting up close to her again soon.

It was a great pleasure to have known Paul over the last 20 or so years. He will certainly be missed.

Great to see the Duxford Diary has found a new home.

It is a lot more difficult these days, you have to apply for a place on the monthly coach tour which you get on at the gate. Sadly you can't take cameras or phones so sadly I don't have any pics from my visit last month.

Well worth it if you get the chance.

It was a different P2 which was damaged by vandals after the forced landing, G-BJAX was withdrawn from use in the mid 90s and following a few ownership changes was last seen in Germany with Meier Motors as a source of spares. The RCAF Harvard was damaged at Little Gransden and subsequently rebuilt b...

N11SN donated it's engine and other bits to G-IYAK when it was made to look like a Yak3. This is the aircraft that lost its wing at Wanaka this year

It was a fantastic display, the ultra light was one of the paraglider things that was part of the next act, he took off from the ultralight strip and flew over the crowd towards the display line. Shame it resulted in the B1 cutting its display short.

I always found that putting a headset on helped with the noise issue when flying....

Over the years I have taken thousands of photos, however other than storing them away I have done very little with them.

Over recent weeks I have been thinking about doing something with them and wondered what the prefered platform (Mac or PC) is to start editing them a little?

Hi, Below is a message reproduced from the Hardwick Warbirds Facebook page which I would like to share with you all. Please note the cancellation of the October Open Day at Hardwick.

RIAT and Old Warden are still worth while. Nice pictures but not the most exciting participation! To be fair Seething is a local charity event which attracted 2 Spitfire, a Hawker Nimrod, a P51 Mustang, a number of other vintage aircraft together with some aerobatics to entertain. Doesn't sound a b...

Yes, N4712V Open days are 3rd Sunday of the month May to October. The hangar is generally open from 11/11.30. There are some excellent interactive exhibits in there. Whilst there is no planned flying at these open days, if the weather plays ball and the aircraft (and pilots) are serviceable then one...

Very nice, any pics of Boeing's finest?

Many thanks, order placed.

Hi, I have recently bought a 7D Mk2 and need to get a CF card. I was wondering what those who have experience of this sort of thing would recommend in terms of: Make Best Capacity Speed Anything else I should bear in mind I am mostly using it for still photos, but may try a bit of video. Many Thanks

Janie is the finest example in Europe, for me.

They are both flown fairly regularly.

I share your view regarding Jane. ...

Any idea what time the B1 arrived?

Hi,

I have been thinking for a while about buying a second body to go alongside my Canon 60D. I had initially considered the 70D but am leaning towards the 7D MkII and was wondering whether anyone else had experience of these and their various merits.


Many Thanks

Hi

The first one looks to be G-TEXN and the second G-AZSC

Very nice pictures, particularly of 12V but then I am biased.

I am seriously considering getting a Canon 70d to partner the 60d I have and replacing a 500d. My question I suppose is how in practical terms does the 70d compare to the 60d? I have read all the bits on the Web regarding spec, but just wondered whether anyone had experience of the two? In terms of ...

Hi Yak 11 Fan....Thank-you for the update on that,I wonder if you could clarify for me, which machine he flew/owned. Thank-you in advance for the info.,. The aircraft in question is G-BAVO there was a great documentary filmed of the rebuild some years ago after its unfortunate accident at Old Bucke...

He hasn't owned the Stearman for 3 or 4 years now
