Keith Hackett has just released a civilianised Oxbox - as flown by CAFU in pre Dove and 748 days - for some reason I seem to recall seeing a very dilapidated oxford at White Waltham many many years ago so I posed it there - btw not sure if Keith is a member here or not - but Ive invited him to come visit - he claims hes not a computer whizz just someone who likes

Hi Leif,
Are my ancient eyes deceiving me or is the registration on the tail really showing as G-AJX1? Shouldn't it be G-AJXI?

G-AJXI went to F-BHVY in 1957 is what I have.

I remember G-AJLS parked/rotting at Fairoaks in the very early 60s.

Wow! Remind me to never create a classic British aircraft for FS2004. Nothing gets past this forum's eagle-eyes.

I remember seeing JLS at Fairoaks - didnt belong to some aerial photography outfit???. The one at White Waltham was green and cream as I remember and someone had hung vp props on it sometime in its life

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the comments and screenies of my Oxbox. Don't
look too closely though because there is bound to be a myriad
of other mistakes!!

This was my first aircraft for MSFS so there are bound to be a few rough
edges. I have a long way to go before I can claim to compete with the likes of Dave Garwood et al.

Hope you all enjoy it all the same.

regards
Keith
