Tell me Paul- does that Merlin sound as brutal and grunty as it does from the outside of the Stang, or is it baffled and quite inside the cockpit? I for one just love the drone that the P51 makes on fast appoaches and low fly-bys... must have been a spectacular experience to actually be a POB! Hi Trolly, Well I'd hardly say inside the cockpit was baffled or quiet! Without the...

great pics , lucky i have a 26 inch WS monitor /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif /> , love that open cowl on the Nangi /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif />

Fair enough- most of my mates don't use it either, I'm mainly only a member so I can keep in contact with my old school friends from England /uk.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :uk: border= 0 alt= uk.gif />

QUOTE (Alex @ Feb 9 2009, 04:38 PM) Haha, I'm pretty sure Paul knows what a radial engine is. I think that post was meant to have a mild tone of disbelief - the Convair doesn't have radial engines, they are turboprop (Allison I think?) My bad- my above comment was a guess from memory. As I said, I hadn't heard or seen a Conny in action for quite some time, and just guessed from the loud drone that they were radial driven- time to go study Mr. Wikipedia! /icon_redface.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :whoops: border= 0 alt= icon_redface.gif />

Love the shots of the 757 display - have seen it many times before but it still drops my jaw every time!

I'm just picturing lining up to board and pulling a folder out of my carry-on bag containing photographs I've had published and articles I've written that have been printed in magazines! Then, I'm trying to imagine someone like Gavin...

QUOTE (Kelburn @ Feb 10 2009, 07:33 PM) Ahh. So you too are a canon user. Just wondered cause your shots always come out amazing! Well I have always used Canon as it was the first camera I picked up and the Nikon cameras look really good as well but have never used one to comment

QUOTE (CDTDAN @ Feb 7 2009, 07:29 PM) Does the 757 land there?? Last time I saw it just did a fly by... /tongue.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :P border= 0 alt= tongue.gif /> Nice photos BTW /thumbup1.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :thumbup: border= 0 alt= thumbup1.gif /> the 757 cant land there (i think there is not enough room), not sure why, they just come from christchurch

hahaha , now thats a goodie /laugh.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :lol: border= 0 alt= laugh.gif />

1000d with 75-300. I haven't had time (and I probably wont for a while yet) to go to the airport...

Gavin , your site , I really do like this layout and ease to check , to search , just brilliant /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif />

Nice to see the SE5s and Camel got up on Sunday! Still not seen any pics of the Tripehound up and about, so they musn't have risked it. Yeah, always love seeing NZ918 on the way through, but also increasingly miffed she's STILL THERE! One of the oldest Harvards in the country. You'd think they'd replace her with a fibreglass one, but ah well. Once I get my boatloads of money I'll donate an insignificant type to them to replace it.....like a 737-300......

OK, so its not QUITE in an airman theme but I had a bottle of this in Whangamata a few weeks back... /thumbup1.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :thumbup: border= 0 alt= thumbup1.gif />

QUOTE (Trolly @ Jan 18 2009, 03:08 PM) Your photos have come out quite clear- what sort of camera are you using? A high-tech jobbie? Dad's Nikon digital SLR - great for G2A shots! Worked out quite nicely, especially with the choppers and Tiger /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif />

Thanks mate

Those coral atolls looks beautiful from the air- that must be a dream job flying up there, all that beautiful scenery and much less crowded airspace than over here in NZ. Look forward to batch #2! /thumbup1.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :thumbup: border= 0 alt= thumbup1.gif />
