Flying in the U.K.?.I know Carolyn Grace owns and flys her late husband Nicks one.But watching Top Gear the other night,Clarkson and co turn up for a competition with there German rivals in three two seater Spits.Thought Carolines,was the only one?.

That mock up of the JSF has certainly done the rounds.Cant see it ever seeing Navy use,as already there are arguments over budget costs,and the reluctance of the Americans to pass on information to there lesser partners.

Well seeing as there is a pic in the office from the angling times of you holding some fish you caught,i thought it was one of your hobbies.Part time concert pianist!!Where the F**k did that one come from??!

I think you will find,that they are only interested in the money that comes through the gate.Not interested in the various groups,and vehicles that make the show,and this is seeming more and more evident over the last couple of years.Best thing to do,would be for all the groups,to boycott it!.

Change of plan.The other half is taking the kids away for the weekend.So might come down on the saturday and camp over.

Cheers:thumbsup:

If its just a turn up event,then i will pop along in the Jeep.I will bring some beers with me.:thumbsup:

Are entry forms needed?Or can you just turn up?

Apart from the mechanics,whats the interior like?

Are you doing pennants??.Want to put one on the Ferret ariel.

He was a bit of a character on that weekend.

Dont be put off by your age.I was surprised to find out earlier this year.That the guy who runs the LandRover 50th anniversary register is only 24 years old.And he does a cracking job.If you are keen and willing, others will follow

Myself,have always had an interest in motorsport.Try to compete in sprint trials and drag events when i can,also quite a few track days.Also an intrest in shooting.I make use of Bisley from time to time. Awaiting my run at Fighting Torque last year at Wattisham A recent track day at Brands,saw me put in a stormin lap Only to over cook it in to the turn... The Vette that will take on Nurberg ring and Spa in October Ony if i can prise it off the other half first... All this car malarky does bring some small rewards...... Our recent display at the autosport show.. The pleasure of having use of my brothers rifles at Bisley

The MV hobby.I will start the ball rolling.As we all know.Catweazle is very keen on boats and fishing.Anyone else..................

Please,lets all give Pat a break.We know his gaff,s (which there are many)are folklore.But after all,he has come from the world of the Peter and Jane books.

It was a shame it was stuck in the back end of the show ground.

Some really great pics.:thumbsup:A day you will never forget.Like the pic of Wattisham as well.You can see the AH64,s from 4 regt AAC on the hard standing.

How did they manage to piss youu off then?.

Are you attending any other events down this way?.Would have loved to have seen it at MM.Outstanding piece of kit.So i take that as a no! to the AH64 as well then,that was originally promised in the bumpf?.

They also used to use the Rattel.

A few months back at Catweazle barracks in Brixton,disscusions were had about his proposal,to take a customers RangeRover,who hadnt paid a bill and paint it Nato green,and take it to shows.I mentioned that this practice had been carried out during the first Gulf War(Operation Granby)A number of brand new RR,s had been requistioned from dealers in Saudi by the M.O.D and re-painted in desert stone.There are some pics of these RR,and shots of them in theatre in Bob Morrisons excellent pictorial book (LandRovers in the Gulf).I have a copy of it,but for the life of me cant find it.Whilst searching i came across this of said actions.......... Now wait for a glut of knackered classics appearing at W+P next year as a cheap way in.:laugh:

Spot on post.My thoughts exactly.There are many that came away from Beltring feeling the same:thumbsup:.

Any pics from last weeks flight??.

I'm sure this guy in the top of the Scimitar nearest to camera was part of your group??.I remember them coming up in a gaggle of 109,s and LtWt,s all nicely turned out.No 101,s there as i think Paul had the only one,and i'm sure he wasnt there.

Did you ever do the show at Carver Barracks??,I'm sure some of your lot did?.
