There was one here recently (with a slightly extended canopy and a dickie seat you could squirm into behind the pilot) giving joy flights, pretty expensive though. When I heard that d...

Re: Candid & Out-Takes @ Fantasy Of Flight

Both very beautiful I'd say, Pirate. Such a colourful, mirror-like shiny aircraft! Looks like a huge toy to charm big children.... : ) But of course they are very competent and efficient and a pleasure to fly. Yildiz Thank you.

Hi Markus,

I'm assuming it's a Moderator thing as I don't recall removing images/links, though the Big red nose one ought to be OK. Problem is, I can't remember what the initial images posted were.

Re: Candid & Out-Takes @ Fantasy Of Flight

Hi Pirate, That's a lucky hangar! Great photos as documents... Were you allowed to sit in the pilot's seat at this exposition, just to have a feel of what it might be like to fly one?

Re: B25 Mitchell 'Tondelayo' - 100% Crop

Yep really great detail, the general look too me though is just a tiny bit cloudy looking, I'm not sure if I'm imagining things or not. It might be a tad of flare maybe n...
