Runners-up

Another runner-up... my first view of a Zero as well!

One for Roger

Some instruments there that I need, so what plane is it?

The Hunchback of Britain... but jolly good at bashing bombers out of the sky

Incredibly rare Boulton Paul Defiant 1, at one time believed by the Germans to be a rear-firing Hurricane!!!

The ugliest plane Supermarine ever made!

Saving the best for last Chris are you still on for grabbing one of those Merlins?

Nice shots but I'd like to see more shots of you 4 who went!

great shots

Ummm Mark. That's not a Zero old chap.

Nice shot of the Defiant.

Hmm time to get back into CFS2 and work on my aircraft recognition then methinks

That 109G-2 is just plain *drool*!

Agreed. One of my regrets is that I never saw (or heard) her in the air.

PS. That's the famous "Black 6".

Still airworthy?

Not since it crashed in '97.

Sure,but I thought they had it completely repaired.

Still looking. I could get you Harvard, no problem

It was only repaired to static display standard as it was going to be retired anyway. Unfortunately it crashed during its last display season, just before I got to see it fly. It was quite badly damaged so I doubt it will ever fly again.

Pity she will never fly again but she still looks stunning!
As seen last year by me during my trip to Europe:



I got alot of strange looks carrying my Maxxum 9 around with the huge flash on it while in the museum .

BTW nice shots Mark...

Just a question... boy, I am going to regret this... Is that 109 the real deal? I mean: is it a real plane or a replica? Cause the pictures remind me of an overgrown model, the colours make it look a bit like plastic...

Please don't kill me, Pleeaaaaaase....  ;D

It is the real deal and the Spit looks like a plastic model,too. Must be the paint...
