For Flying Trucker

Here's a little get well soon pressie Doug. I took them during the Shuttleworth Pageant at Old Warden last Sunday.

The Bristol Fighter. One of your favourites I believe. Shame they didn't fly the SE.5a.

I know you like the Lysander. This one was built in Canada.

The BBMF Lancaster.

Finally the only airworthy Sea Hurricane. Built by the Canadian Car & Foundry in 1940.

Fantastic shots Doug, and gorgeous aircraft. :)

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

There is another Sea Hurricane airworthy, although it pretends not to be, AE977 in California (dressed as Bader's "LE-D"). Like Z7015 it started life leaving CCF as a Mk1, gaining its sea legs on arrival in the UK. :)
