Given that I'm usually in the driving seat of my machine, there aren't many photo's of it on the wing. However, here's a link to a photo that I found on the web of us departing "Flying Legends 2011" just after "Big Beautiful Doll" bit the dust....

Yes, it worked - great plane! Though might the web link have mirrored the image?

maxred 15th Oct 2011 15:47

Thanks DAR. Sorry, 'mirrored the image???? Not sure I understand

IO540 15th Oct 2011 15:52

I am not sure it is mirrored. I can't read the writing but the prop blades look correct for a prop which rotates CW when viewed from the cockpit.

maxred 15th Oct 2011 15:55

IO-Understand now. No the image is correct, no mirror effect.

Is the US flag on the main wheel door the right way around?

maxred 15th Oct 2011 18:24

Well spotted. :ok:

Actually they were delivered like that, and on application, it was realised one on correctly, the other round the wrong way. Since been removed incidently.

Funnily enough, I could never figure why they came like that. Was in a set of other decals (pack) purchased from Performance Aero.:uhoh:

Pilot DAR 15th Oct 2011 19:10


Since been removed incidently
Excellent! In other times, displaying insignia upside down or backward on an aircraft was a secret display that the aircraft was in enemy type trouble, and should be intercepted. I just want to make sure you're safe!

maxred 15th Oct 2011 19:29

So that's what that ME109 over Shoreditch who intercepted me was doing:rolleyes:

I actually called them, (PF), and attempted to explain the problem, you can imagine the conversation, then decided it was a bad batch, and removed the offending article. It was either that or order another batch to get two correct ones:eek:

upside down Union Jack
Perhaps the Union Jack is symmetrical both ways, and roundels only round, because the UK military fliers were so self confident that they would never need to send secret signals for assistance?

Pilot DAR 16th Oct 2011 02:57

Oh, okay. The RAF will probably still be out of luck, having me figure out that one of their aircraft has been hijacked, by displaying their flag the wrong way 'round....

Why not drag this thread back up front a bit?
 
My baby, last week……at the start of one of my classes……..while still tweaking the aircraft a bit as well--> hence the missing spinner.

This design is known for its wide cabin; yes you lose a bit in cruise--> but it´s very comfy inside! "It´s not the destination, it´s the trip getting there" as they say……..

I can´t see the pic unfortunately…….knowing your work it will be worth it; but all I see is a blue question mark! If you don´t mind, could you please post it in a different way; or perhaps in a smaller size? No idea why that is…...

Nice, our club has 2 trikes……it´s a different ballgame all together.

How do you post these pictures? I was going to add a couple of my plane but I couldn't make it work. I click on the "picture" button then add the URL for Flickr between the brackets, but nothing appears. Does Pprune refuse to work with Flickr? What I have in the post is something like:

{IMG}http://www.flickr.com/photos/27441829@N06/4448335025/{/IMG}

where the {} are really []. In fact, there's one right after this - but as you (can't) see there's nothing there:

Thanks... that indeed is the picture, my 182 parked at Mulege. It's a great little airstrip - when I landed there, the local kids were playing football in the "ramp" area, complete with a three-legged dog (presumably after a too-close shave with someone's plane).

I've been trying for months to get photo bucket to work without success.
Flickr worked first time and no annoying pop ups.
Used the the photo upload icon but without img at either end.
