Finally from the RFC archives come snaps of our v.own Fozzer, circa Jan. 1917 Antwerp.....
Hooning around in the morning air



Suddenly he spots that most dangerous of enemies, an unguarded bottle of plonk

Navigating by pubs

Off into the sunset

According to Pauls former CO "Fozzer would frequently shoot down a dozen aircraft with a single burst, but we had to divide the number of aircraft by the number of bottles he'd consumed with his gourmet lunch to get realistic statistics"

Love the sunset pic and the silhouette of the triplane. Befitting for such a bird!

great pics

...took a while to get used to the spinning rotary engine, but quick left-hand rolls catch the Hun out every time...!
..and always remember to give it a boot-full of rudder pedal on take off.. .... ...!

Off to the Mess now for a couple of beers with the lads and show them the bullet holes in the canvas, and then paint some more aeroplanes kills on the fuslague... ...!

Never a dull moment... ...!

Tally-ho chaps, wizard prang, and all that sort of thing... ...!

Paul.

An AMAZING sunset pic!!!!  Is that the default sunset??

...a few years further on, 1930's... ...!
No more flailing rotary engines.
An oily, but reliable Gypsy Major engine now in a Tiger Moth.
...just as draughty tho'... ...!







Cheers all... ...!

Yes, and ol Fozz, has even been known to storm oil rigs in hopes of getting a short slurp or two................. :-/


And has been seen in the Grand Canyon, asking Eagles for cigar handouts.............


Words fail me...........................  :-/  

Hey Ozz!  Where did you get that beautiful little Sopwith?  I'd like to get my hands on one.  Great shots by the way.

Haha sabrehawk!

What a load of cobblers.

It's pretty obvious those original shots were of Fozzer's SON

Fozzer above Antwerp. Hope those mothers held there dauthers in the house. Otherwise he may be my great-granddad ...  ;D

Sock the only place I've spotted the Sop. is at no-nodes. It came out a couple of days ago. Its a 4mb download, and worth every byte Flies great
