OK, do I have to be the first one to make a joke about Erection?
Nice work as usual Jan. What's the story behind the Harvard? Where's that from, real-world?

The Italian air force, same period the French were using them as FAC aircraft in Algiers during 1954, with the closest to the area the aircraft were painted to show non aggression , the same thing happen during the 1962 Congo crisis this time the tables turned .

Over here, there is a clothing retailer by the name of The General Pants Co. If they had only bought a C-47, the two paints would have made an interesting package, or bundle, or something

a South African building company I assume, building high-rise.......oh well..

The Harvard is a restored aircraft flying from Grosseto, the owner helped me get all the details right.
Time...yes, I wonder too at times...so far I was able to dodge the bullets..

and this last one has a kiwi connection: its pilot, Wg Cdr Colin Grey was from NZ:

Colin Grey's exploits, our NZ WWII ace , total 27 CD, great paints JK

They look Great JK , the scenery with the Harvard, that seriously looks so close to area around the Army Base outside Wodonga Australia, great Army museum there to.

[jankees]

it's actually close to Tamworth

[Ian Warren]

I've never stopped in Tamworth, when get into many of these inland towns they appear very much the same as far as the terrain , always looks warm and dry, Wagga is similar , Broken Hill changes again to a different barren type.

Alright, so I have no idea what this aircraft is, but it looks very nice.. Kind of reminds me of an MU-2, except the wings are a bit further back, and it's a bit more pointy..

[Ian Warren]

That a Aero Commander, sure this one is a payware but Milton Shupe has a good freeware tho .. not this model tho .

Mike .. Yeah ! upside down round and round without spilling a drop

[emfrat]

Well the FAA thought so, and conjured up enough 'evidence' to take his licence...but what a great flier he was, completely at one with his machine

[Ian Warren]

I did not know this, I saw great video looping his aircraft with a cup of water, that was back in the early 1980's.
