  1. Whereas those who follow their Facebook page and got in when the tickets went live, have ours pinned to the kitchen notice board!
  2. Only £70k for the Toad? I'd have thought it cost more than that to restore. I assume it's because it's an oddball British vehicle.
  3. Now, that would be nice! The Mosquitos used in the film were: RS709 - flown in the film (now on display at the National Museum of the United States Air Force at Wright-Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio) RS712 - flown (now owned by Kermit Weeks, on display at the EAA AirVenture Museum, Oshkosh, Wisconsin) RS715 - cockpit section only RS718 - written off in simulated crash sequence. TA639 - flown (now on show at the RAF Museum Cosford, Shropshire) TA719 - flown (now on show at the Imperial War Museum Duxford) TJ118 - cockpit section only TV959 - at RAF Bovingdon Airfield, but not flown TW117 - flown (now on show at National Museum of Aviation, Bodo, Norway) List from Wiki.

  4. Spotted over the last week. Royal Navy Merlin helicopter, in a holding pattern over chez nous before its display slot at Waddington. One of the BBMF's Spitfires, heading away from Waddington. Lanc & another Spit preceeded it. C17 Globemaster heading into Waddington, one evening last week.
  5. This is the Spit he's got, MH415. The 2-seater HA-1112. Mitchel in formation with one of the Heinkels.
  6. http://www.platinumfighters.com/#!ha-1112-m1l/c12zi "Major Falke's", aka Adolf Galland, Bf109.
  7. Next to Brigg's Metal in Newark. Crappy cameraphone picture.
  8. This is supposed to be the same tank.
  9. Worth getting in touch with Axis Track Services, they've restored several and have several more undergoing restoration.
  10. How not to do it?, Aussie style! [video=youtube_share;f8trkgFX6wI]
  11. Monument tank in the Ukraine. Supposedly used against the Russian (backed?) side. [video=youtube_share;KeZ3VpDc0YQ]http://youtu.be/KeZ3VpDc0YQ Can you imagine any Western tank being able to do that, after sitting out for 40-odd years?
  12. There are a number of running TKS in private Polish collections, Adam Rudnicki Collection has one, Jacek Kopczyński Collection another, More likely than a national museum to send one over?
  13. This one's a version of the BTR60, the PU12/PU12M mobile command post. http://forum.valka.cz/viewtopic.php/t/23991 The BTR60 it's based on has a turret with an HMG in it. The others are the 2S3 "Akatsiya" And the 2S1 "Gvozdika"
  14. Beaus did carry 60lb rockets. Nose off one of those?
  15. Pershing towing Sherman.
  16. https://www.facebook.com/#!/TheColdWarCollection?fref=ts Interesting collection you've got there.
  17. Here's a Rolls Royce Griffon starting & running. A mere 2,240 cu in & 2-2,500hp! Your's should an absolute doozy! You'll need a petrol bowser to run it! Sadly, I guess that the H&S fascists will stop you running it.
  18. http://www.com-central.net/index.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=13757&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=150 Photos on p11 of this thread. :shocked:
  19. Britain's railway stock was completely knackered by the end of WW2, fit for the scrapheap & little else.
  20. Militant wrecker on a low loader, heading along the A46 between Lincoln & Newark, about 12ish this morning.
