    I believe a few of these were issued to special forces, if so what special features made them fit for purpose?

    At least she went out in true magicians style, dissappered in a big puff of smoke! :banana:

    A sad day indeed John, those of us who have sampled the enjoyment that owning such a boat must bring you, know how hard it must be being forced to put her aside. I just hope that sooner rather than later a way will be found to carry on. Thanks for a spiffing day out.

    That should be a manageable first project, you are not alone TN, we have a resident magician on here who will no doubt have some helpful input. Meanwhile I assume you've seen this thread: http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread.php?t=12555&highlight=triumph+trw

    A Warbird fly past is usually seen by a great many people who have little or no interest in the main show or event, so they just might be prompted to think about why these old warbirds are still flying our skies, which can only be a good thing.

    Hi Jason, and welcome, just to get the first basic question answered, yes it should be green :-D

    I read somewhere that the rear bogies ended up fixed sideways to a harbour wall to prevent damage from ships, a cunning plan!

    Hi Alex, like others before you you have come to the right place, have fun, try not to leave models at the top of the steps down to the Stolly lake, not for stealth and hasty reasons you understand, we just have too much fun already and laughing any more would hurt. some info for you on these threads http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread.php?t=10240&page=2 http://hmvf.co.uk/forumvb/showthread.php?t=10786

    Hi, yes I remember you Steve, you fancied buying Forceful when he was at Keith Gotts place, your girlfriend of the time did me a favour by not likeing Scammells! I was impressed with the sensible way you dealt with the axle failure, Forceful is looking with envy at that shiney exhaust stack! :thumbsup:

    Hi Al, welcome to the forum, I am very intrigued by your RC U-Boats, fully submersible I presume, but how?
  22. gritineye
    Yup, great viewing, thanks for posting. :thumbsup:

    My first thought too, but it doesn't really look like one, no stikeing knob or hose showing, and the flat top.
  24. gritineye
    This pic is from the Austin K9 thread, someting odd about the pioneer behind that I have never seen before, any ideas? Who said us retired old gits have nothing to fill our time?
  25. gritineye
