I remember posting in the VF Forums a screenie from my FS9 of DG's Anson, with Emley Tower visible through the window and the bunch of navigators consulting their maps. I asked what Simon and Garfunkel song they were singing. The right answer was "For Emily, whenever I may find her" but sad to say, they don't speak English in the E Midlands, and it seems 'Emley' is not pronounced like that. Bluidy Sassenachs

Doug shot that well

, Dave I'm really looking forward to it , so far Francois has only 200 plus photos of the insides and i've still got to head back next week to target specifics , "Barf" of the Wigram Air force World Museum is also related to the Bill Reid the owner of the aircraft based at Omaka and so is going to further photo information and lucky bugger will get a ride .... think its going to be a real doosie

I'll say... although it does look as if someone bolted the conservatory onto an old pair of wings.
Plumbing and drip irrigation included...

And with a local repaint from Adrian "Light Under a Bushel" Brausch, very much current in the sim

! Thanks very much, mate.

Interestingly, Dave Philips when preparing to fly the Mossie for the first time, used this to acclimatise himself to an old, twin-engined aeroplane.
He must've had a bit of a shock stepping over into the de Havilland!

Ehh where'd I put that clip...
Here!

Charl .... magic shots , the last one is a stunner .

Posted: **Sun Mar 10, 2013 11:09 am**

Amazingly sedate by compare to the Mossie

, Great screens Charl and vid link ... inside the Anson you start thinking what it would be like going into combat were the bad guys can see ya run around like a chicken without a head on it

Posted: **Sun Mar 10, 2013 12:33 pm**

my pleasure Charl , seeing my mates here at NZFF enjoying it is what its all about
