One less p-51

Postby expat » Sun Jul 10, 2011 11:55 pm

Big Beautiful Doll went down at Duxford yesterday. Appears to have collided with the Sky Raider. The pilot baled out to live another day.....

But two pilots were lucky to escape with their lives after their vintage planes collided in mid-air during the day's final displays.

Sky Raider pictures, minus several feet of wing and aileron.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

There is something wrong with the time stamps because at 06:55 this morning there was no other post about this.........??

You must have missed it. My comments in the other topic were posted before I went to bed last night (Sunday).

Well, I checked and checked again and was surprised that nothing had been posted which is why I made mine. Maybe my browser was showing old history??
