Re: Just Flight Dove Released....
I did some beta testing work for JF some years ago and they seem to be 'selective' as to which snag reported is addressed!

Tim Peak....why the fuss?

Re: High Flight film on YouTube.
The 43 Sqn. Hunter footage was meant to be 111 Sqn, but was changed due to weather and operations. Apart from the Vampires swapping from two to single seat variants mid air, most of the stuff is good, bearing in mind it's date. There is another, similar film available, called ' Conflict of Wings' a ...

High Flight film on YouTube.
This film from 1957 called High Flight is not something I've seen before today, sort of Carry on Cranwell! Worth a watch for the aircraft alone, not to mention spotting all those British stalwart actors of the time.

Re: End Of Mid Air Squadron
I read that the Vulcan crew are taking on work for one of the UK Mosquito projects, but there experience is much closer aligned with the PR9. Saw her twice last year, she is quite a performer....doubt if we'll see that again, whatever happens .

Re: Lightning F3 Simulator - Help Wanted
Thought I'd raise this thread from the dead....rather like myself, at least on this forum! I'm now a volunteer at Tangmere again, after a gap of 8 years whilst living abroad and the Lightning sim is still doing a fantastic job, keeping visitors entertained. I soon got myself 'passed out' as an instr...

Re: Visit to the Imperial War Museum, Duxford...Part 2
Great photos Peter, was planning a trip there myself, but have just read that the US exhibition hall reopens in March next year, so might wait a few months. Still looks very impressive.
