Hmmm! Turns out North Weald were mistaken, and the C-54 pitched up at 18:45. Ah well... win some, lose some.

Have noticed an unusual amount of activity 'round the four DC-4's parked at FFZ in Arizona. Four engines have been run-up, removed, crated up and sold in the last two weeks.
Someone must need 'em.

If you guys like old prop airplanes, go have a look at our PBY in the hangar at North Weald.

There is a old piston engine airplane that is restored to as good as new, correction better than new. It has all the modern IFR equipment in it.

So go drool over that one.

C-54/DC-4 arrivals are definitely worthy of a spot in the AH&N forum IMHO. I can't go and see them just now but I like to know they are in North Weald.

Chuck ,if I taxi my little Auster over to the Cat, d'you think the powers that be would allow them to have a chat while I drool over the Cat .
Seriously though, if a few of us Ppruners got together and met in NW, is there somebody we could talk to who could arrange for us to have a drooling session? We'd promise to wipe her down afterwards

Saw the C-54s on Sunday - wow.

My 7 year old son was amazed.
