Happy anniversary gents , thanks for educating and entertaining posts .
Chopper and prev. Sad to hear of Snoopy's demise . Hope history doesn't repeat itself .... As in after the Rolls Royce Rb211 was certified ; the VC10 testbed was scrapped .. no one looked ahead and foresaw the need of a flying testbed for future generations of Rolls Royce engines.... expensive hiring of US equipment has been necessary ever since .
Now trust a civi to point out the obvious .... Chopper did really well in his posing of 3 types of ''Herc'
A tribute from Marshalls ? or bought and paid for by decades of Herc work ?
Rather neat all the same .
