A real classic

Postby Hagar » Mon Sep 29, 2008 3:50 am

Another brilliant weekend. Can't believe this weather. I spent Sunday at Popham & Old Sarum.
Late in the afternoon vintage restorer Ron Souch dropped in at Popham in this exquisite DH Puss Moth.

Open the door & have a look inside says he.

You can always rely on Ron for something special. A true gentleman in his aerial carriage. ;)

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.

The leaves have just started turning down here Paul. We won't see the best of it for a couple of weeks yet.

Not sure about the Puss Moth Matt. The Leopard Moth is very similar. Frank Elton did one for FS9. http://www.simviation.com/fs2000props29.htm

PS. Belay that. It appears to be an early FS2002 model.

Wonderful shots Doug...beautiful, that interior shot is great.   :)

Thanks for posting them.

Oh and the leaves here don't really get into full bloom until a little later in October, where we are everything is still green.   ;)

Thanks. Think I'm overdoing the blur. I messed up a lot of good chances yesterday. Now I've proved I can do it I might just go back to my tried & trusted methods. :P ;)

:o
Not many aircraft are worthy of "splendiferous", but that one qualifies...  ;D

Not many of those still flying, I'd imagine.

Good job, sir!  8-)
