Hi Toby

Nice pics on these threads....thanks :smile:

Is the nose-wheel actually bent or is that just the painful angle giving that effect.

Probs just the wind made it move and swing like a trolly.

Hi Garry,

Yup the wind moved Concorde and the RJX quite a bit the other week, as a consequence, the RJX's nosewheel is right round at the moment. I suspect someone will get a tug in at some point at move both aircraft back to their correct positions!

Just like me, paid to play with aircraft and of course look at attractive cabin crew.
