Did you fall off your bed Graeme?
Finished tea, washed up like a good husband and then looked at SC.

I know it's not on the list Reg, but so easy.

It's even a Hasegawa model you have used.

Noyade 23rd Aug 2011 11:10


but so easy.
Yet for a fighter pilot you hesitated? Get killed doing that mate. :)

Lightning Mate 23rd Aug 2011 11:11

Listen smartass - I was out of the office when it came up.

Noyade 23rd Aug 2011 11:14

Scrub one Lightning.
Boomerang does a victory roll.


Zoooooooooom.............

You think "I was watching elsewhere" would help me when caught pants in me ankles?

Lightning Mate 23rd Aug 2011 11:17

I think Graeme has gone out to buy a new felt-tip.

Noyade 23rd Aug 2011 11:19


felt-tip.
You bet! Look familiar?!...

That is the "landing gear jettisonable" á la HappyPass.

Noyade 23rd Aug 2011 11:22


Curtiss P-40E Warhawk.
(Reg - AQ - Unusual panelling at the rear of cockpit?!)

RegDep 23rd Aug 2011 11:23

I was wondering that too. That's why I was looking for torpedo bombers….


RP-40 : Some American P-40s were converted into reconnaissance aircraft.
TP-40 : Some P-40s were converted into two-seat trainers.
???????

No, just another American racer similar to a shot-down LM challenge earlier.

Lightning Mate 23rd Aug 2011 11:26

Look familiar?!...

A little.

Similar to the Howard DGA-4.

Lots missing though....

Noyade 23rd Aug 2011 11:26

Why does the word "bet" appear as it does in post #1508...?

Noyade 23rd Aug 2011 11:29


Howard DGA-4
Not a Howard mate.

More exposure...

Chester Goon?
Nope...
...or Folkerts SK-4... they all look similar...

Lightning Mate 23rd Aug 2011 11:41

...bet...bet...chance...chance...

Must go - sod it!!

Noyade 23rd Aug 2011 11:42


Chester Goon?
But bloody hell it does look similar!

I don't see Chester or Goon with my source for this machine though.

HappyPass 23rd Aug 2011 11:44

See edit above...

Noyade 23rd Aug 2011 11:47


Folkerts SK-4
I'll accept that mate! :ok:
Source says SK-3 Jupiter, but they look so similar.

Your control HP.
