May 17, 200224 yr bruno.........for the inhabitants of this island with any sense of history, this aircraft will always be very very special........it is pleasing to know that examples are being preserved and appreciated elsewhere in the world........apart from its military role, it has to be one of the most beautiful looking(and sounding) pieces of engineering ever.....thanks for sharing your pictures........alan d kerr..........morayshire/scotland
May 17, 200224 yr And not only for the 'islanders' I might add ;-) There are millions of us on the other side of the 'Channel' that owe a great debt to the inventor, the manufacturer, the pilots and their leaders of this truly magnificent flying machine !!Thanks Bruno, great pictures !! So will the aircraft be kept as a static display or will it fly again? What museum is it displayed in?Kind regards,Francois :-outta Francois :-wave[table border=0 cellpadding=10 cellspacing=0][tr][td valign=bottom" align="center]"At home in the wild"[/td][td valign=bottom" align="center][link:avsim.com/alaska/alaska_051.htm|Don's Alaskan Bush Charters]"Beavers Lead the Way"[/td][td valign=bottom" align="center][link:www.avsim.com/vfr_center/mainpages/vfr_flights_main_page.htm]VFR Flight Center]"Looking Good Outside"[/td][/tr][tr][td valign=top" align="center]http://avsim.com/hangar/air/bfu/logo70.gif[/td][td valign="top" align="left" colspan=2]http://ftp.avsim.com/dcforum/User_files/3cdd6a6a60efc7f5.gif[/td][tr][/table]________________________Francois A.

Dad's Army.The White Hart Pub.And still remembered to this day, in Brazil, and at E3, and soon on our computers.Well.... Never in the field....
