Re: Radom Air Show 2023 (26-27 August)

If anyone finds out if the road by the field is accessible (so we can go into the car parking) on Sat Sun please let me know I wondered if it was just closed to through traffic and the ‘town end’ was shut..

Most interesting part of the latest news report from press conference today - translated with Google - so beware! Col. Waldemar Gołębiowski talked about the program of the event. – On Saturday, August 26, we open our gates at 9.00. At 10.00 the planes from the historical block will take off. The fam...

Seems it cashed into a parking lot near holiday apartments. No injuries on ground, crew unhurt. There are numerous videos and news sources.

Re: Is this lens worth buying moisture issue

IMHO save up for a better option... I don't suppose any of us knows if it will get worse ... but if it does you won't be able to use it or sell it

I seem to recall some sort of FIAT newsletter which would have been around 1977 - I don't think there was any other benefit.

Re: RIAT 2024 - discuss most things thread

While I agree a B-1 is never going to have a theme of its own it may be that in the future an anniversary sub theme (maybe 30, 40, 50, 60 years, etc) could throw up some interesting combinations which also show the evolution of design and use.
