    Aha! :-) Andy

    Excellent work, as usual! Andy

    Correct - the NLBA was the second private owner. There have been several since! Andy

    Welcome aboard - let us know what you're after and we'll see what we can find! Andy

    Was it John Dodd who also built a "Lady Penelope" car round a Merlin? Andy

    Looks like it could do with a sympathetic new home! Andy

    But presumably therefore subject to the usual VCR restrictions? Andy

    Looks a good match! Andy

    I didn't realise a Judge could overrule mandatory sentences, I thought that was the whole point of them. Andy

    A "rocket launcher, or any mortar, for projecting a stabilised missile" is a Section 5 weapon. What I find more worrying is the judge's comment that the owner "should have checked if this was a potentially dangerous weapon or not". Does this suggest that a deactivation stamp and certificate isn't good enough, an owner must somehow check the weapon themself? Andy

    Another thought, make sure you're near a hose when you come ashore. You'll want to get that salt water off asap. Andy

    Indefinite SORNs are good news, too. Andy
  14. andym
    No to the flashing lights unless you consider yourself to be a hovercraft! Andy

    Oh, and don't forget a marine VHF radio, a GPS and someone who knows how to use them! Andy

    I'd strongly agree with that, and make sure you've got some competent people to navigate. Think it through VERY carefully and arrange a support vessel such as a RIB to accompany you. Andy

    I can't find it either, but FV708845 and FV708846 are parts from the Scimitar's GPMG mounting, if that helps narrow it down? Andy

    Ah - I see now, I was seduced into thinking the circle in the centre was a turret ring. As a reconnaissance vehicle they wouldn't exactly have been stealthy, would they! :-) Andy

    Doesn't this also depend on the individual state in the US? Andy

    10/10 for bravery Chris - this will be an interesting thread to watch! Andy

    You can see the RN version of this ("Box Ten") on HMS Belfast, or the somewhat simpler torpedo computer on HMS Alliance. Amazing pieces of machinery which Charles Babbage would have had no trouble in recognising! Andy

    Is it some sort of missile launcher? Andy
  23. andym
    Strictly speaking, the IEC would define 110V DC as extra-low voltage, but I'd still be inclined to treat it with utmost respect! Andy
  24. andym
    Looking good, Paul! Andy
  25. andym
    Browndown, where else? :-) Andy
