No worries, PZL also produces the engines, so no big issue :)

Looking back I definitely chose a difficult topic to judge here :sweat_smile: A fantastic variety of entries through the ages and so many moments captured that I wish I could hop into a time machine and experience myself!

1st Andyph's Catlina, lovely image of a beautifully kept aircraft in an equally beautiful setting.

2nd Blackbird's Shakleton, I can only imagine how good that sounded as it passed over. Amazing to think they flew daily in and out of the likes of Lossiemouth!

3rd Seamus's patch work Canadian Aurora, truly showing off what a workhorse the P-3 is and under the operation of Canada will continue to be for a further 15 years!

Special mention to PeteFenwick with 3 equally rare and unusual types posted together, would love the chance to photograph every one of them!

Over to Andyph to choose the subject of the next 48 hour themed thread!
